Youtube thumbnail size

I have been using a combination of 1280px x 720px and 640px x 360px thumbnails, and they seem to work well for me, however I am kind of curious about which thumbnail produces the best results?

"Please upload image as large as possible (suggested: 1280x720), since the image will also be used as the preview image when your video is embedded on other sites. You can upload a JPG, GIF, BMP, or PNG file. Maximum file size is 2MB."

I always use 1280 x 720 picture and it fits perfectly with a margin of about 10 x 10 boarder top and bottom.
