# Sizing Your Overlay to Account for Scaling
<a name="about-overlay-scaling"></a>

In jobs that scale the video resolution, whether your overlay scales with your video depends on where you specify the graphic overlay. Global and input overlays scale with the video; stream overlays do not.

For example, suppose that the input video for your job is 1080 x 1920 and you specify three outputs at 720 x 1280, 480 x 640, and 360 x 480. You want your square logo to be 10% of the width of your frames. You would provide overlay images at the following resolutions:
+ For a motion graphic overlay or an input graphic overlay, provide a 108 x 108 image. AWS Elemental Server appropriately sizes each overlay on each output.
+ For a stream graphic overlay on your 720 x 1280 output, provide a 72 x 72 image.
+ For a stream graphic overlay on your 480 x 640 output, provide a 48 x 48 image.
+ For a stream graphic overlay on your 360 x 480 output, provide a 36 x 36 image.
