How it works
How to use the YouTube logo maker
Your channel logo appears next to every video and comment, usually tiny. Make a bold, readable logo from your initials or name, an icon, a shape and your colours, downloaded at 800×800.
Type your initials or a short name and pick an icon.
Choose a shape and colours; the preview shows it at real sizes.
Download the PNG and upload it under Customisation, then Branding in YouTube Studio.
