I recently updated my YouTube banner, and I think it's really cool because it kind of shows me in a
concert with the guitar, like on fire with lights and everything.
I just want to show you how I did it.
I did it actually in only a few minutes by myself in Canberra.
And I just want to deconstruct it for you.
So this guitar totally separate image, this background image is a totally separate image.
And this fire is actually a bunch of little fire images that I kind of put on top of each other and
spaced it out so that.
It looks like bigger fires, all three images from Big Sur Bay, and this actually was a taller image,
but YouTube has certain dimensions for different screen sizes.
So in this kind of a screen size, it cut off the top in the bottom.
So you don't see the crowd of fans.
But if this banner was taller, you would see like a crowd of fans.
And supposedly this is me.
This is not me.
I've never performed like this, but I just wanted to make a cool, cool image because I had a new song
that I released and I wanted to get more people to get engaged with my channel.
So I created this banner at the same time.
And I wanted to show it to you because, you know, if, like a world class professional designer made
it, of course it would be better.
But here I am, like an amateur, not a designer at all.
But still, I can make something relatively kind of cool like this.
And let's say I get some feedback.
People maybe don't love the guitar, or maybe I should have the fans shown more on different screen
sizes.
I can easily go and edit it myself.
They'll have to wait for any designer going to pay them.
And of course, I do my best to be non promotional here because I am showing my channel.
But at the same time, this music channel is a labor of love.
So I actually would love for people to check it out, especially since I just released this song, this
Magic Dandelion song.
It's kind of a cool song, like a little bit of a controversial topic like against gun violence, but
it's like a inspiring song, which actually was really hard to make.
So in any case, if you do check out my channel, Aleksandr DenTek Music, I'd appreciate it.
And of course, he'll be interesting to see how this channel grows because I myself, Don, I'm hoping
for the best.
Anyway, hope you can check it out because it is my music that I put my heart into.
And even if you don't consider how easy it can be to design really cool imagery for you in minutes,
once you master Kenber in all the same tools that we used to create the thumbnails.
