Please note that if you set it as a gif your project will be marked NFE, basically it restricts it from popping up in search results and on the front page to make sure the front page doesn't lag.

Now, here's a project that explains how to do it.

1.book mark this then when you are in your project you click on the bookmark (don't drag!) then select the file you want to choose!
2.and if you don't have a file then make a gif, export it, then do step one again

This method is different, lesser-known and easier:
1. Copy past this on your Search Web bar:
javascrpit:x=document.createElement("script");x.src="//is.gd/thumb2"; document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(x);
2. Press enter
3. Select a GIF from your computer
4. BOOM! You're done, but remember that your project will be marked NFE, and EVERY time you save the project, you'll need to set the thumbnail again
