YouTube Layout/Background Tutorial - Part One

[eateroftheflame]

Why has youtube randomly decided that it only needs to use the middle of the screen? This layout looks like it was designed for crappy smart phones

[jameskapo]

CHANGED AGAIN! Thumbs up if you mother fucking hate it. I want Youtube to change it back, They can;t refuse 40,00,00000000 people. Oh and send bad feed back! :D

[Pazdos]

[Baleog18]

with the firefox addon fireshot, you can make a screenshot from the whole site.

[thesameasever]

i don't know if it was already said, but there's a faster way to do the print screen:

if you use firefox, there's an extra called FireShot (among others) which allows you to take a snapshot of the whole webpage

hope it helped ;D

[MrBeat1993]

@thesameasever Thanks for the tip. It's helped me a lot. Thanks again!

[thesameasever]

@MrBeat1993

[KILLDESTROYBURN]

[NeoRoman1]

For all of you saying "this button isn't here" or "I can't find blah blah blah" : YT is updated now. There is no longer any channel design button, no more banner customization, no nothing like that. Just saying.

[TrueDeathless]

Making a layout is so frustrating. It makes me want to cry.

The template doesn't ever want to work, neither does print screening.

[MrMoesTV]

@GFXSupport

How to get a yt partner?

[YannickzTV]

@MrMoesTV Just type in the youtube website, and add "partners" at the end.

[comedia101010]

@GFXSupport what is a youtube partner???

[ACHIEVEMENT001]

@comedia101010 a youtube partner is a youtube acc that pays the user for how many views it gets and you get advertidsement for how many people click on it you get 10 cents and you get more stuff to pimp.

[Safegold008]

@XDHD10000 You nab

[jshaw6000]

Hey dude thank you for the tutorial. Just an FYI the link for the template doesn't work. I click on it and I get a bunch of random text. Also if you use Firefox, there is an add-on called ScreenGrab that lets you capture the whole page (even the non visible parts) so that way you don't have to use prtscn button and then try to cumbersomely line everything up.

[GFXSupport]

@jshaw6000 i checked the download link, works fine, maybe your browser is setup to view .rar files... if thats the case i suggest right clicking the link... and going to save target as!

[4EverS0ra]

i dont have photo shop!! :(

[XXLILxxJOKERXX]

i have 3 free youtube backgrounds for free!

please go check them out, and sub to me?

[caleitsmejack2]

how the f*** you get banners?

[ShaXCwalk]

@caleitsmejack2 be a youtube partner :P

[caleitsmejack2]

@ShaXCwalk lolz i realized that not long after :D btw thanks for these tuts ive gotten prettygood at making Photoshop CS3/4 stuff :D

[Konve216]

how u get ''branding options''?

[Arellapple]

to bad you can't actually rate it 5 stars! :(

[zulnaim09]

AAFTER U PRESS F11 WHAT DID U DO?

[DSMNationX]

print screen. what're you, stupid?

[zulnaim09]

@DSMNationX no i just cant hear he said but.. its settle :D

[Riyuzakisan]

Hey there's an "application" or accessory for the Google Chrome browser called "Webpage Screenshot", it takes screenshots of a whole page and combines them into one full image that you can save. You don't have to manually take screenshots and line them up to each other, but some trimming must still be done if you want to take off the Youtube search bar part, and all that. (best to take the screenshot when logged out, so there are no channel editing options taking up space).

[TheWwerocks99]

my hand tool wont come off!

[FlyersFan1517]

make it a psd and send it to me...what is a rar file???? i can't open it

[incredicassio]

it's kind of like a .zip file. Open it with WINRAR, it's an amazing program, it opens so much stuff

[314clcr]

If you don't know what an rar file is then you probably shouldn't be using a computer.

[Techible]

If You Have Fire Fox You Could Use Fireshot To Take A Snapshot Of The Entire Page

[zulnaim09]

@Techible how?

[laronvonbaron]

sorry i should have watched this one first----

[GFXSupport]

@laronvonbaron ;)

[laronvonbaron]

my last question --- as i went through your tutorial you said that you would try to put up the plain blank box(modual) template with the proper spacing -thats a good idea although i probibly just have to learn this because it appeals to me -and i like to expand my education what you provide is of great value and i hope you dont have hater trolls hahahah any way i saw your mailbox count over 500 and said to myself-just send a last comment telling him thanks-THANKS GFX YOU ROCK

[GFXSupport]
