YouTube channel banners use a 2560×1440 source image but display very differently across TV, desktop, tablet, and mobile. The central 1546×423 area is the only region that's visible on every device.
ImageMint resizes to the full 2560×1440 with cover or contain modes. Design your central content for the safe zone, then let the outer areas fill with background imagery.
