The best way to make your Rumble channel stand out is to add a beautiful backsplash that reflects your channel brand. I’m going to show you how to design your own Rumble backsplash, also known as your channel banner. I’ll walk you through the process of creating a custom backsplash for free using Canva.
Understanding the Basics
What is a Backsplash?
- The backsplash is your Rumble channel banner. It’s the large banner displayed at the top of your channel.
