How to Manage NSFW and SFW Thumbnails and Previews for Your Clips


In the Creator Workspace, creators can now upload Safe for Work (SFW) thumbnails and previews (i.e., without explicit content), in addition to the standard NSFW versions. Creators can also go back and edit already posted clips and add SFW thumbnails and previews in the Creator Workspace giving old content new life in front of new customers!


This tutorial will guide you through using the new NSFW and SFW thumbnail and preview options when uploading your clips. Providing SFW content ensures your clips are visible to non-logged-in users in regions where age verification is required. If you don't provide SFW content, a blurred version of your previews will be displayed.



Accessing Thumbnail and Preview Options

  1. Navigate to your Creator Workspace.
  2. Begin the process of uploading a new clip by pressing the purple "Upload" button.
  3. Proceed to "Step 2 - Previews" in the upload flow. Here, you will find the options for managing your clip's thumbnails and previews.
  4. You have a few options here:
    • Use Auto-Generated NSFW Content: The system will auto-generate NSFW thumbnail and preview.
    • Upload Custom NSFW Content: You can choose to upload your own custom thumbnail and preview.
    • Upload Custom SFW Content: You can upload SFW custom thumbnail and preview.



Reuploading Thumbnails and Previews


If you need to change a previously uploaded thumbnail or preview, here's what to do:

  1. Hover over the image you wish to replace
  2. A "Re-upload" button will appear
  3. Click "Re-upload" and choose a new image.


If you start uploading a custom file and then decide to cancel it, simply press the "Cancel" button.




Using the Same Image for Both NSFW and SFW


When you're using an auto-generated thumbnail/preview or uploading your own custom one, you can declare that the same image can be used for both NSFW and SFW by clicking the "Use as SFW" button.




For Already Posted Clips:

  • Log in to the Creator Workspace.
  • Click on My Content and choose Content Management from the drop-down menu.
  • To the right of each published clip is an “Edit” button, click on Edit and then click Next at the bottom of the page to go to your Previews
  • On the Previews page you’ll now see two new upload options for a SFW thumbnail and a SFW clip preview to be added.
  • Just upload your SFW JPG or PNG for the thumbnail and then upload your SFW MP4 for the clip preview and click Next.
  • Choose your desired re-release date for the clip you are updating and click Submit.


Important reminder: SFW thumbnails and previews must not contain any nudity or explicit content. Files that violate this rule will be rejected by Compliance.
