Regional workflow
- 01
Check the current YouTube upload screen and note its accepted format, pixel dimensions and file-size limit.
- 02
Open the Image Cropper, apply the recommended settings above and keep the preview focused on professional presentation, portal limits and personal privacy.
- 03
Download a separate copy, reopen it and test it in YouTube before replacing the original.
Quality and privacy
Keep a reusable master and record the settings that worked for YouTube.
Create each revision from the master instead of repeatedly recompressing an exported copy.
Before publishing, check transparency, orientation, faces, names, license plates and GPS metadata.
Preview the image as a small circle if it will be used as an avatar. Keep the untouched original until the final file has been accepted at its destination. Platform image requirements can change. The current upload screen always takes priority.
