Upload wide 5:2 source
Upload a wide source — 5:2 is wider than 16:9 or 1.91:1, so generous side padding minimizes loss.
Discord Profile Banner Resize
A Discord profile banner is a 600×240px (5:2) image up to 10MB — a premium feature available only to Discord Nitro subscribers. It appears at the top of the profile popup (the card that opens when someone clicks your name in chat), so unlike a typical social banner, others rarely encounter it by accident. Visibility is lower, but every viewer arrived deliberately to learn more about you, giving the slot strong first-impression value. The profile picture (~80×80 circle) covers roughly the left third, so key visuals belong in the right two-thirds, and the unusual 5:2 aspect rarely matches banners from other platforms — it needs its own design. Nitro users can also upload animated GIF banners for a stronger impression, while non-subscribers can pre-design the asset for whenever they upgrade. This tool exports a 600×240px JPG or PNG while previewing the left-third zone the avatar will overlap.
How to use
Align key into right two-thirds
Align key visuals and text to the right two-thirds; leave the left ~1/3 (avatar overlap zone) as solid color, gradient, or pattern.
Export JPG/PNG — GIF Nitro-only
Export 600×240px as JPG or PNG. Nitro users can also upload GIF (within the 10MB cap).
When to use this tool
Because the profile banner is only seen by people who deliberately opened your profile card, a single deliberately curated visual — your work, identity, or interests — usually resonates more than a generic decorative banner.
Designing the 600×240px banner that anchors your Nitro profile-card first impression inside the right two-thirds
Building a dedicated cut because the 5:2 ratio rarely matches banners reused from other social platforms
