About the banner maker
Channel art is one of the few places a creator controls entirely, and the wrong dimensions are the most common mistake — a 16:9 image uploaded as a YouTube banner gets cropped on television and on phones. This tool exports the exact sizes each platform accepts: 2560 by 1440 for YouTube, 1500 by 500 for X, 960 by 540 for Discord and 1920 by 1080 for Twitch.
The design itself is deliberately simple: a title, a short tagline and a gradient. That is enough for a banner, because the safe area in most banners is narrow and busy artwork is usually lost at display size. Always keep the important text near the horizontal center.
How to use it
- Select the platform you are publishing to — the canvas resizes to that format.
- Enter a short channel name and an optional tagline.
- Pick a palette and a text color that stays readable over the gradient.
- Download the PNG, then upload it in the platform's channel art settings.
FAQ
Why does my banner look cropped after uploading?
Most platforms crop channel art differently per device. Keep the headline inside the central safe area rather than near the edges, and check the preview at the platform's own crop.
What if I need a matching profile picture?
Make one with the initials avatar maker using the same palette, so the icon and banner look like a set.
