YouTube thumbnails are public images that YouTube makes accessible to anyone. You can download them for personal use, fair use (commentary, criticism, education, research), or with the creator's permission. However, you cannot republish them as your own content or use them commercially without authorization from the copyright holder.
No. All thumbnails belong to their original creators and are protected by copyright. This tool simply provides access to publicly available image URLs. Always respect creators' intellectual property rights.
Only if you have permission from the original creator or if your usage qualifies as fair use (commentary, criticism, education, news, research). When in doubt, contact the creator for permission.
No. ConvertDox does not store or save any thumbnails. We simply provide direct links to YouTube's publicly hosted thumbnail images.
YouTube has their own DMCA process for copyright issues. We recommend reporting copyright infringement directly to YouTube. You can also contact us if you believe our tool is being misused.
Not all videos have a maxresdefault.jpg — it depends on the upload. If it fails to display, use the Standard (640×480) or High Quality version instead.
YouTube generates thumbnails at five standard sizes: 1280×720 (max), 640×480 (standard), 480×360 (high quality), 320×180 (medium), and 120×90 (default). All are JPEG format.
