I'd say, take a nice screenshot with your RP and use it as your pack thumbnail

This might get long.

1st, I would install Paint.Net (download link is getpaint.net, not paint.net)
1.1, Make a new image, of a recommended resolution of 1280x720

2nd, find a nice bold font that matches the aesthetic of your texture pack. (Fontstruct.com is a good source for fonts)

3rd, make a new layer, then make some text saying the title and center it on the image using you chosen font.

4th, find a background that fits your pack and insert it into the background layer. (Pre generated layer)
4.1, Take some textures that you want on the front, upscale them, then put the upscaled textures each on a different layer, where you want them to be in the final image..

When finished, type [​Ctrl] + [​Alt] + [​S] and then make sure the image colors are set to 32-bit. Then click save, and specify the directory you want to save the image to, and make sure that the file type is set to *.png. If this has been done correctly, a window asking if you would like to compress the image down to 1 layer should appear. Click 'Yes'.

Now you have your thumbnail. Hope this helps!

What does your pack add? What theme is it? Is it this, or is it not on this site yet?

Yeah, its that texture pack, and the theme is galaxy/aqua stuff. I tried my best to make a worthy thumbnail but i still think it isn't that good, after all, I made the thumbnail on google slides and then screenshotted it. Any tips?
