Changing Video Image Chosen

[Plustar]

I want to link to a youtube video that has a step by step instruction in it.  When I go to choose the image for the video link, it is choosing the step 2 frame.  I obviously don't want this, the step 1 frame would be fine or any other frame.  How can I change the image that is picked to represent and link to the video?

Hi,

If you wanted to change the thumbnail, you would need to take a screenshot and then make that a clickable link to your video.

To take a screenshot, follow these steps.

Thanks, Jarrad.  That link to the screenshot steps isn't working for me.

Hi Plustar!

Sorry about that! This link should work for making a screenshot. If you have any trouble, let me know!

Thanks!
