📋 Copy This Prompt
Create a YouTube channel banner in ultra-wide 2560x1440 composition. Theme: [YOUR NICHE, e.g. tech reviews / travel vlogs / gaming]. Style: cinematic gradient background (deep navy to electric blue) with subtle abstract shapes and soft glow. Keep the central 1546x423 safe area clean and uncluttered — place the main visual interest at the edges. Mood: professional, modern, premium. Details: soft depth of field, no text, no watermark, no logos, no faces cut off at edges. Make it look like a 1M-subscriber channel's banner — polished and memorable.

Why This Prompt Works

  • Never put important visuals in the centre safe zone — YouTube crops banners on mobile.
  • Match your banner colours to your profile picture for a cohesive brand.
  • Regenerate when you rebrand; a stale banner signals an inactive channel.

Prompt Variations (3)+
  • Couple version: replace “my selfie” with “a photo of us together” for a matching couple portrait.
  • Festive twist: add “wearing festive ethnic attire, diya-light bokeh in the background” for a Diwali-ready version.
  • B&W classic: append “black and white, high-contrast studio portrait” for a timeless monochrome look.
Things to Avoid+
  • Never put important visuals in the centre safe zone — YouTube crops banners on mobile.
  • Don’t delete the “keep my face unchanged” line, or the result won’t look like you.
  • Don’t stack heavy filters afterwards — they undo the realistic finish.

Can I use my face in the banner?+

Yes — describe yourself in the niche bracket and the prompt composes around it, keeping the safe area clear.
