Frequently asked questions

▸What size is a YouTube banner?

2560x1440 pixels, but only the central 1546x423 area is visible on every device, and the guaranteed-safe area is 1235x338. The overlays show each device's crop so nothing important gets cut.

▸Is the banner maker really free?

Yes, free and unlimited. It runs entirely in your browser, and exports carry no watermark.

▸Can I use my own images and logo?

Yes. Set your own image as the background and add a logo you can drag and resize directly on the canvas, combined with headline and subtitle text.

▸What format does it export?

Full-resolution PNG, which preserves sharp text and graphics and is accepted by every platform (YouTube's file limit is 6 MB). You can also download a separate guide overlay to check designs in other editors.
