I'm having a lot of trouble designing my YouTube banner because I don't know the size the template should be for the design to fit desktops. I'm always having to go back and adjust things because an element is out of the design space for desktops.

Thanks! This helps a lot. Now it's less guess work.
But there's an issue! YT won't allow me to upload a Banner image that is less than 576px high! How do I get around this?
If that is your issue, you can always use a resizing tool online that keeps the aspect ratio of your original image. So resize your height to 576, but it will also resize your width so your image doesn’t look funky.
2048 x 1152 pixels and 6 MB or less.
Thanks for your prompt assistance! But i resized it like you say. It blows it up way out of proportion once uploaded!
But I want a wide banner for desktop. Like this one...

I see! What i would recommend is to have an entire image that has the dimensions 2560 x 1440, and place your desired banner image in the center of that so it can show on desktop.
Maybe that entire image of 2560x1440 can be a blue background that matches the color of your banner.
I figured it out. THANKS all you awesome Buddys!
