How to Change the "Subscribe" Button in YouTube

YouTube partners can customize the appearance of a YouTube profile with special features and branding options not offered to non-partners. Although there is no way for any YouTube members to change the actual subscribe button in YouTube, partners can upload a video page banner that changes the look of the subscribe button by surrounding it with a custom image. Give your subscribe button a new look by uploading a banner that is up to 360 pixels wide and 55 pixels high.
