YouTube Banner Safe Zones — Explained
YouTube displays your channel art differently across devices. The safe zone system works like this:
The TV display uses the full 2560×1440px image. The desktop crops to approximately 2560×423px (the horizontal strip). Mobile crops further to 1546×423px. The absolute safe zone — where your text and logo must stay — is the central 1546×423px area.
Every template in this pack has the safe zone pre-marked with a guide layer. Simply keep your text inside the guides, hide the guide layer, and export.
