Are they predetermined by youtube? meaning we can not choose a new thumbnail for the video? :oops:

Regular users cannot, but those who have a partnership with youtube can.

However, you can actually add one by adding it towards the midway point of your video.
For example: if your video was 2:00 long, you'd add it at 1:30 and so on.

You may also have to wait a couple of months after getting partnership before you can use custom thumbnails.
