About this tool
YouTube recommends 2560×1440px for channel banner art so it displays sharply across TV, desktop and mobile. Uploading an image at the wrong size means YouTube crops it automatically, sometimes cutting off logos or text near the edges. This tool scales your artwork to fit that exact canvas ahead of time.
Because the fit preserves your image's aspect ratio rather than stretching it, text and logos keep their proportions — you just get to see exactly what you're uploading before YouTube touches it.
Questions
Will YouTube still crop my banner?
YouTube crops the safe area differently per device regardless of upload size — this tool just gets your file to the recommended canvas dimensions first.
What if my design isn't 16:9?
The tool fits it inside the 2560×1440 box without stretching; you may want to add padding in your design for the best result.
Is my artwork uploaded anywhere?
No — resizing happens entirely in your browser.
