What Size Should a Twitch Emote Be?

Twitch emotes require square images (1:1 aspect ratio) with transparent backgrounds. In Manual Mode, you upload three sizes: 112×112 px, 56×56 px, and 28×28 px (under 100 KB each for static PNG per Twitch's Subscriber Emote Guide; up to 512 KB each for animated GIF per Animated Emotes Guide). In Auto-Resize Mode, you upload a single image between 112×112 px and 4096×4096 px (under 1 MB), and Twitch scales it automatically.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers about Twitch specifications, image safety, and export formats.

What size should a Twitch emote be?

Twitch requires 1:1 square assets with transparent backgrounds. If using Manual Mode, you need three files: 112×112 px, 56×56 px, and 28×28 px (static PNG files must be under 100 KB each per Twitch's Subscriber Emote Guide; animated GIFs cannot exceed 512 KB each). If using Auto-Resize Mode, you upload one square image between 112×112 px and 4096×4096 px (under 1 MB), and Twitch scales it automatically.

Are my artwork files uploaded to any server?

Never. OnlineEmoteResizer executes 100% on your device using client-side Web APIs. Your images are never transmitted across the network, stored on external disks, or fed into machine learning pipelines.

Will my transparent background be preserved?

Yes. If your source image is a transparent PNG or WebP, the alpha channel will be preserved across all exported sizes. You can also inspect transparency against both light and dark backgrounds.

Does getting the right dimensions guarantee Twitch acceptance?

While our presets match Twitch's exact technical dimensions and file-size constraints, Twitch manually or automatically reviews all submitted emotes for platform Terms of Service and Community Guidelines. Presets guarantee dimension compliance, not policy approval.

Are animated emotes and subscriber badges supported?

Yes! Subscriber badge presets (72px, 36px, 18px) and animated GIF emotes (112px, 56px, 28px) are fully supported. Animated GIFs preserve all animation frames, custom timing delays, looping metadata, and alpha transparency directly in your browser with zero remote uploads.

What is the difference between Twitch emotes and subscriber badges?

Emotes are chat expressions requiring 112×112, 56×56, and 28×28 px in Manual Mode (static PNGs under 100 KB each; animated GIFs up to 512 KB each; or a single square file under 1 MB in Auto-Resize Mode). Subscriber badges appear next to viewer names and require 72×72, 36×36, and 18×18 px (must be static PNG only with transparent background, under 25 KB each).

How do I resize a GIF for Twitch?

To resize a GIF for Twitch, drag and drop your GIF file into OnlineEmoteResizer and select the Twitch Emote preset. The tool decodes every frame in your browser, rescales each frame to Twitch's required dimensions (112×112, 56×56, and 28×28 pixels) using alpha-weighted bilinear interpolation, and preserves frame delays, infinite looping, and transparency. Click Download to save your ready-to-upload Twitch GIF pack—processed 100% locally with zero server uploads.

How to resize an animated emote?

To resize an animated emote, ensure your source animation is in GIF format (Twitch does not support animated WebP). Upload it to an in-browser resizer like OnlineEmoteResizer and choose whether you need the Manual Mode 3-tier pack (112×112, 56×56, and 28×28 px, up to 512 KB per file) or a single square file for Auto-Resize Mode (up to 1 MB). Verify that the aspect ratio is square 1:1, frame count is 60 or fewer, and background transparency is preserved before downloading and uploading to the Twitch Creator Dashboard.

What is the maximum file size for Twitch emotes?

The maximum file size depends on the upload mode: in Manual Mode, static PNG emotes must be under 100 KB each (per Twitch's Subscriber Emote Guide), while animated GIF emotes can be up to 512 KB each (per the Animated Emotes Guide). In Auto-Resize Mode, the single uploaded square image cannot exceed 1 MB.

How many frames can an animated Twitch emote have?

Animated Twitch emotes must use GIF format and can contain up to 60 frames. Twitch also requires animations not to flash or flicker more than three times within one second. Check the animation's frame count and flashing behavior before uploading it through the Twitch Creator Dashboard. OnlineEmoteResizer can help prepare your GIF, but Twitch makes the final upload and compliance decisions.
