[@LizCalhounsocialmedia]

Sunny, I absolutely love your channel. My channel art is what it is because of you. Thank you so much for sharing what you know.

[@isegrim1978]

I stumbled over your videos by accident but I find them extremely useful and informative. Thank you for all the work that you put into making them.

[@everydayinsight371]

This video saved me from losing my mind while I was trying to create a banner page. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

[@tom_d2912]

thx you so much, i thought picmonkey is better but at the end i need member ship to save it, but now because of you i can finally make my channel art. really appreciate it :D

[@judyfelix7242]

This was great! I originally just uploaded a picture & it didn't fit correctly. Your video helped me understand why the picture wasn't working. I followed your steps & was able to create a nice, simple channel art.

[@SincerelySeema]

So helpful! Got my channel art up and have figured out my initial niche. Thanks for helping guide me Sunny!

[@onefingerworshipchords5212]

For some reason, this is the most difficult step for setting up my new channel. Thank you for your help. God bless.

[@gettubed8791]

You are SO helpful!!! You explain things in such a great way! Just from learning the ways you describe how to do different things in an easy-useful way, it makes things so much easier to elaborate that idea! (i.e.- the thumbnail vid & this vid) Thank You for your help and video's!!!

[@videobuzz9198]

Hi Sunny, your videos are very helpful... I will start from scratch by using your advice.Thanks

[@gaming.and.musical.y4764]

[@MonkeyUK.]

[@mommyscribbles]

[@LifeofLin]

Thanks! This was so helpful! I was getting frustrated because the images I created just would not fit in there the right way. I am so excited to get started!

[@CardPhantom]

Thank you for simplifying everything. Your knowledge saves me a lot of trial and error.

[@ReacHDreamz]

Thanks, finally a simple way of describing it and turns out great!

[@TonyaPlans]

Although you published this video in 2015, I want you to know this video helped me so much in 2018 and saved me a ton of frustration! You're awesome. You are one of the few creators that provide SPECIFIC, DETAILED info as opposed to just concepts. Keep up the good work!

[@gloryb-tv]

Thanks for showing this! Sometimes in Canva, "Forward" and "Back" are grayed out. I tried their 'help', but it wasn't helpful to find out if there's a trick to getting those words to stick.

[@j.p.tomanova3291]

This was so incredibly helpful. I'm getting a ton of info from all your videos. Thank you!

[@shirleyusalways9852]

thank you..! this was so helpful. . just started my channel and just found you too.. love your content

[@DianetteMendez]

[@MySweetDharma]

Wow I'm so happy i found your channel and that I watched this video. Having so much fun making thumbnails and other channel art, now my youtube looks soooo much better! Thank you so much :) your videos are great!

[@KalasStage]

Thanks so much for the helpfulness! You now have yourself a new subscriber. I am just getting started on youtube and your videos will be very helpful in aiding me to do it the right way the first time around. Thank you, Sunny!

[@PhilistarBonyo]

Aaahhh! Things have definitely changed with Canva since then. Struggled but m banner is done now :) Thanks Sunny!!!!!!!!! once again.

[@TiffanyTV]

Hey Sunny! How did you add the logos for your social media links??

[@darlene.michaud]

This was so helpful! I've been struggling with channel art for so long & now I finally have it! Thank you so much!

[@rickhardin2275]

Great video! But I worry about copyright infringement in the part where you Googled the "old school" film image. How can you tell you're safe to use an image or when you should secure permission?

[@climbinggymnetwork1019]

Not only am I learning what I expected to, but I didn't know about adding the various links. Thank you.

[@MDLeon-ci2qj]

I am benefited by this.Thanks Sunny Lenarduzzi.

[@Sblackphoto]

HI Sunny! Finally found this vid. again!! I knew that you had the info i needed. I first watched this years ago but I'm getting properly into KZbin now. I'm hoping the size is still current. Been silently watching you for years keep up the great work!

[@DerryKing999]

Wow. I have been.looking for a video like this for 2 weeks lol. Thank you. so simple and easy.

[@jcannon1227]

Great Video! One that covers intro and outro snippets would be good!

[@DollieSolanki]

Hi Sunny, this is a really helpful tutorial. However, I am unable to find the template in the Google help (where you have shown to download it). I tried to search for a downloadable template but haven't been able to find that. Can you help me please?

[@ultrasafeadvanceddrivertra9720]

[@ElizabethM2]

Im a new youtuber & your videos are so short yet clear & informative #instantsub ❤

[@5mepo5]

Hi Sunny I have been enjoying and learning new and exciting things and techniques from your videos I have also subscribed to your channel as I posted my first video 0:32 long just for fUn back in Oct 2015 However as of our camping trip in Jan this year I was posting commentary videos of the trip on my Facebook page and was told I need my own KZbin Channel so I started uploading this and past content to KZbin since this time I have got 6 subscribers. I forgot what my question was Sorry about the length

[@natashatuskovichdesigns]

OMG I just struggled so much with getting the dimensions to work with the crop!! I should have just checked your channel first.

[@stupidorsmart7089]

Having trouble with choosing what to make my header from- as in, what should I include in my header art (background image, subject, what to include/exclude, how to make the artwork communicate my channel branding)!!!

[@furreelfeathers]

Thanks so much! your videos are teaching me a lot!!!

[@Zacbe]

Thank you so much for such a detailed description and added tips on the topic! I am currently finally working on my KZbin Channel and videos like this one are very helpful!

[@Kai-uj5go]

I can't get the downloaded background image to work on canva and its a custom photo that i shot myself so idk what is going on it will let me edit the dimensions and get everything perfect but won't let me download my banner =(

[@CookingwithKirby]

Thank you for the information!!

[@ExpressionsbyDasmine]

Your time was greatly appreciated, very helpful!

[@nicolekrombach6565]

Thank You, Thank You! I've been trying to make a nice banner for my page and had no clue where to start. After watching this I was able to make a new banner/channel art for my page!

[@coolcalmandmom4896]

I have learned so much from your videos!! thanks so much

[@MartinesPastries]

A little late to this video, but between it, YT4Bosses and a couple fellow boss tutorials, our first generation channel art is up!!

[@karfaw2]

Thank you Sunny for this tutorial. It is very helpful. Your explanation is very easy. I tried many sites and I found you are the best.

[@dr.jeniferepstein210]

Hi Sunny! I am brand new to this and just created my channel! I am trying to follow the steps, but when I click on creating KZbin art, it is asking me to sign in and then saying this options is unavailable. Is there another way to get the template to Canva? Thanks!

[@rowanplaysgames5038]

Thank you so much for the help I have subscribed, liked and your the best :)

[@buildingdreams9708]

Thanks for the video but I didn't like it, wouldn't let me resize my own logo to fit within the template so I used Picmonkey.

[@ReadMeAClassic]

Thank you. This was a big help. I'm not afraid of Photoshop, but I'm not the greatest artist either. I'm pleased with the results and it was FREE! Very awesome! Again, a big thank you.

[@katrinadougherty7450]

this was kinda helpful but youtube keeps cropping it and im getting annoyed and don't know what to do

[@robyndaltonhairmakeupfashi1927]

you are so helpful and I really enjoy watching this video

[@divinedimeof09]

Did you use the logitech web cam for this video?

[@miketafoya4922]

I just did this in the amount of time of the length of this video! Big ups to you for this very informative video. Helped me out a lot. So easy. I just subbed to your channel too. Now my channel art is looking fly!!

[@kimberlyjackson517]

[@MistaGuess416]

just started watching your videos! thanks for being so helpful!

Hi Sunny, Could you make a tutorial on how to display your social media logos in your videos? Curious to know the trick. Merci!

[@lineweaver777]

I guess I might sound ignorant, but on my KZbin channel, I don't have a little edit pencil on mine like on yours in the video. So am I missing something or not have something set up right?

[@stephencoxbass]

Super helpful! Thanks Sunny! Mine's still not perfect, but it's better than it was, and I'll try again soon to improve it. :) Still relevant 3 years later!

[@CreativeQueenx]

Thank you so much for your videos. Is picmonkey or canva for free ???? Coz I tried using picmonkey, made such a beautiful banner took me few hours, then I realised that I couldn't save the image as the system asked me to pay for the whole package ???? :((((

[@freetoshinebright4133]

Sunny, thank you so much for this video. I also thank you for your New Boss YT channel checklist. I have just started my channel about a month ago and I am learning so much through your videos! Be blessed :)

[@E-MusicProductions]

Hi Sunny! just found your channel today and wanted to thank you because it's been really helpful! BTW KZbin just changed the banner view and dimensions this month, that's why all our banners changed a bit ;)

[@4kidsenglishclubs71]

Sunny! I- LOVE-YOU! I spent hours trying to figure how to get the sizing correct and after watching your video, ta-da! Thank you so much, your videos are always very informative well-explained and to the point! Thank you!

[@sagsun1]

Excellent information! I spent all day yesterday trying to figure out everything you explained today! LOL!
