How to Put More Than 1 Picture on Your YouTube Channel Background

YouTube allows you to customize your channel in a variety of ways, including uploading a picture that is displayed as your background image. Because you are allowed to upload only one picture at a time, you must create a collage of pictures if you want to put more than one picture as your channel's background image. Although your background image may be as wide or tall as you want, the file size must not exceed 256KB.
