Every size YouTube serves

YouTube stores the image a creator uploaded and serves resized and cropped copies of it. The original banner is the full image, which TVs show; desktops show a wide strip from its middle and phones a narrower one. This tool lists the original and each crop.

It's handy for checking how your own banner crops on each screen, recovering artwork you've lost, or making a press kit. Images belong to their channel, so use other people's only with permission.

Frequently asked questions

What size should a YouTube banner be?

YouTube recommends at least 2048 × 1152 pixels at 16:9. Keep text and logos inside the central 1235 × 338 area, which every screen shows.

What size is a YouTube profile picture?

YouTube recommends uploading 800 × 800 pixels. It's shown as a circle at 98 × 98 pixels, so keep the important part in the middle.

Why is the original larger than the other sizes?

The original is the image as uploaded. The other sizes are copies YouTube resizes and crops for each screen.

Can I use another channel's banner or logo?

They belong to the channel. Download them for your own channel, or when you have permission or another lawful reason to use them.
