600x240, Nitro profile banner

Discord Profile Banner Maker

Create animated Discord profile banners for Nitro profiles.

What you can make

  • 600x240 banner frame

    Use Discord's profile-banner ratio so the upload fits cleanly.

  • Avatar-safe composition

    Keep the main subject away from the avatar overlap zone.

  • Nitro-specific output

    For animated profile banners, not static header images.

  • Trim and crop before export

    Center the useful moment, remove dead time, and keep the banner readable at a glance.

Requirements

Canvas
600x240 px

Discord profile banners display at a 5:2 ratio.

File size
Under 10MB

Animated profile banners should stay light enough to upload cleanly.

Requirement
Discord Nitro

Animation on profile banners is a Nitro-only feature.

Best source
Wide motion or simple looping animation

Busy scenes often feel cramped once cropped into the banner.

How it works

  1. Upload the source clip

    Choose a short video or loop you want to reuse as your profile header.

  2. Crop to the banner area

    Frame the key motion inside the 600x240 banner while leaving room for the avatar overlay.

  3. Trim and tune the file

    Keep the loop short and clean so the banner stays light and readable.

  4. Export and upload in Discord

    Download the banner and add it from Discord User Settings > Profiles.

FAQ

What size is a Discord profile banner?

Discord profile banners display at 600x240 pixels. Short animated banners under 10MB are easiest to upload and preview well.

Do I need Discord Nitro for an animated profile banner?

Yes. Animated profile banners are a Nitro-only feature. Without Nitro, the banner can still exist as a static image.

What should I keep out of the profile banner safe area?

Keep faces, logos, and text away from the avatar overlap zone so the main subject does not get covered.

Can I start from a normal vertical or horizontal video?

Yes. Upload the clip and crop the useful motion into the 5:2 banner frame before export.
