AI YouTube profile picture maker
Describe the subject and the style — the AI composes a 1024×1024 avatar built for the circle crop, and shows it at the sizes YouTube actually renders.
Composed for the circle, not the square
YouTube crops every avatar to a circle and shows it at 98px on your channel, 48px in search, and 24px next to comments. A picture that looks great full-size but muddy at 24px is the most common avatar mistake — so the maker centres one subject, keeps shapes bold, and leaves the corners empty on purpose.
Describe the subject, not the layout
Say what should be in the picture and how it should feel: “a fox in a hoodie, flat vector, orange on cream” beats a paragraph of art direction. The framing rules — centred subject, clean background, no text — are already in the prompt on our side.
Check it where it will live
Before you upload, look at the 24px preview under the result. If you can still tell what it is, it will read everywhere on YouTube.
A channel is more than an avatar
PostLink reads the comments and transcripts behind any YouTube channel — titles, descriptions and replies written from what viewers actually say.

What size should a YouTube profile picture be?
YouTube recommends 800×800 pixels; we generate 1024×1024, which YouTube scales down cleanly. It is shown as a circle everywhere, so the subject has to sit centred — the maker composes for that crop.
What makes a profile picture readable?
One subject, bold shapes, high contrast against a simple background. YouTube renders avatars as small as 24px next to comments — a busy image turns into noise at that size, which is why the previews under the result show 96, 48 and 24px.
Which AI draws the picture?
OpenAI’s image model, prompted to compose a centred, circle-safe avatar with no text and no watermark. You describe the subject and style; the framing rules are handled for you.
Can I use it for my channel commercially?
Yes — the image is generated for you and you can use it as your channel avatar or anywhere else.
Is it free?
One free run with a free account, then it continues on a paid plan — every image costs us real model time. Tools that cost us nothing stay unlimited.
