# Edit Thumbnail Caption colors

> Learn how to customize thumbnail caption colors by editing text and banner background colors in just a few simple steps.

You can fully customize the caption colors on a video thumbnail in Sendspark. Click **Edit Styles** at the bottom of the thumbnail editor, then under **Text Overlay** set the **Text Color** and the **Banner Background Color**. Pick any combination — for example a green banner with white text — or remove the banner entirely and leave the text over your video.

## Key takeaways

* You can customize both the caption's **Text Color** and its **Banner Background Color** on a thumbnail.
* Open these options by clicking **Edit Styles** at the bottom, then looking under **Text Overlay**.
* Mix any colors you like (such as a green banner with white text), or remove the banner and leave the text directly over your video.
* Thumbnail style edits affect only that specific video, not your workspace's global styles.

If you are looking for the right color, you can completely customize the text color for your thumbnail and the banner very easily, check it out!
