Discord image sizes at a glance
Discord uses several image slots with different shapes. The server banner (960×540, 16:9) sits above the channel list on boosted servers. The server icon (512×512) and user avatar (128×128) are both masked into circles, so any square design gets its corners cut — keep logos and faces centered.
The profile banner (680×240) appears behind your username on your profile card, and the invite splash (1920×1080) is the background shown on a server invite link. Use the resizer above to crop your artwork to whichever slot you need.
Discord image best practices
- Keep logos and faces centred — the server icon and avatar are masked into circles, so corners get cut off.
- Use a clean 16:9 image for the server banner (960×540) that matches your community's theme.
- Use consistent colours across your icon, banner and invite splash for a cohesive server look.
- Only use imagery you own or are licensed to use, in line with Discord's guidelines.
- Export at the exact size for each slot so nothing looks stretched or blurry.
