About this tool

Profile pictures in every size

YouTube keeps the profile picture a creator uploads and serves resized copies of it. We list the common sizes from 72 to 900 pixels together with the original file exactly as it was uploaded. Each size is checked, so you see its real pixel dimensions and file format. Sizes larger than the original are enlarged by YouTube without adding detail, and we mark them as upscaled.

Banners and the safe area

Channel banners are usually uploaded at 2560×1440 and cropped differently on each device. Desktop shows a wide strip (2560×424), tablets a narrower one, phones only the central 1546×423 safe area, and TVs the full image. We list every crop YouTube serves, in several widths, plus the original upload, so you can see how a banner looks everywhere before you change it.

Keep text and logos inside the safe area. It's the only part visible on every device.

Video links work too

Paste a video link and we show its thumbnails, along with the profile picture and banner of the channel that posted it.

Respect the creator's rights

Profile pictures, banners and thumbnails belong to their creators. Use them for personal reference, such as checking your own channel art or studying a design, and ask the rights holder before reposting them or using them commercially. We don't store images: previews load straight from YouTube, and downloads are passed through without being saved.

FAQ

Why is my banner cropped?

YouTube shows a different part of the banner on desktop, TV and mobile. Only the central safe area is visible everywhere.

What sizes are available?

Profile pictures in 8 sizes from 72 to 900 pixels plus the original, and banners in 17 sizes across desktop, tablet, mobile and TV crops plus the original. Sizes YouTube doesn't serve for that channel are marked.

Do you store the images?

No. Previews load directly from YouTube, and downloads pass through our server without being saved.

How do I get the full-size profile picture?

Pick the original in the profile picture list. It's the file as it was uploaded, which can be much larger than the 800 or 900 pixel versions. If the original is small, the larger sizes are only enlarged copies.

What size should my own banner be?

YouTube asks for a 16:9 image of at least 2048×1152 pixels and no more than 6 MB. Most creators use 2560×1440 and keep text and logos inside the central safe area (1546×423 on a 2560×1440 image).

Will the channel owner know I downloaded their image?

No. We read public pages without signing in, and nothing is sent to the channel.
