Supports PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, BMP
Drag your stream-brand art, key art, or wallpaper onto the page. Start with at least 1200 px wide so Twitch doesn't have to upscale.
The crop box is pre-set to Twitch's 1200×480 (5:2) shape. Resize and reposition — the ratio stays locked.
Twitch overlays your username, live badge, and follow button across roughly the left 200 px. Keep your logo or central subject right of that zone.
Export as PNG for sharp logos and text or JPG for photographic art. 1200×480 stays well under Twitch's 10 MB cap.
Twitch's profile banner is 1200×480 pixels (a 5:2 ratio). Anything smaller is upscaled and looks soft; anything larger is downscaled by Twitch. Cropping to 1200×480 here gives the sharpest result on every device.
No — the profile banner is 1200×480 (5:2), but the channel offline screen / video player banner is 1920×1080 (16:9). Use the 16:9 crop tool for that asset; this page is specifically for the profile banner.
Twitch overlays your username, follow button, and live indicator across roughly the left 200 px of the banner. Keep your logo, slogan, or main subject to the right of that strip, or center it horizontally with clear space on both sides.
No. Twitch only accepts static images for the profile banner — PNG, JPG, or single-frame GIF. Animated GIFs upload, but Twitch displays only the first frame, so design the crop assuming a still image.
PNG is best for banners with sharp logos and text; JPG is best for photographic art. Twitch caps profile banner uploads around 10 MB, but a 1200×480 PNG is usually under 1 MB — file size rarely becomes the bottleneck.
