Discord Profile Banner Resizer
With Nitro you can add a banner to the top of your Discord profile card. This page resizes your image to 600×240, the 5:2 shape Discord uses for profile banners. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded. Need a smaller file instead? Compress or convert.
Drag the preview to choose which part of the image is kept. The same framing is used for every image in the batch.
Getting the Discord profile banner right
The profile banner is the image at the top of your Discord profile card, available with Nitro, in a wide 5:2 shape.
Nitro feature
Profile banners are part of Nitro.
Avatar overlap
The avatar covers the lower-left area.

About 22 KB–45 KB as JPG
A typical photo at 600×240 saves to roughly 22 KB–45 KB at good quality — well within the upload limit.
You choose the crop
Filling 600×240 from a 4:3 phone photo trims about 47% of it. Drag the preview to choose what stays, or tick the fit option to keep everything.

Banners on the profile card
The avatar overlaps it. Your round avatar sits over the lower-left part of the banner on the profile card. Keep that area plain and put the interesting part in the centre and right.
Animated banners. Nitro also allows animated GIF banners. For a still banner, a PNG or JPG at 600×240 is light and sharp.
Server banners are different. The banner at the top of a server’s channel list is a 16:9 image; use the server banner resizer for that.

Frequently asked questions
What size is a Discord profile banner?
600×240 pixels (5:2). Profile banners need Nitro; keep the lower left clear for your avatar.
Do I need Nitro for a Discord banner?
Yes, custom profile banners are a Nitro feature. Without Nitro you can choose a banner colour.
Is the server banner the same size?
No, server banners are 16:9 (960×540 minimum). See the server banner resizer.
Why is my banner cropped?
It was not 5:2. Resize it to 600×240 first and choose the crop yourself.
Are my images uploaded?
No. Resizing happens entirely in your browser. Nothing is transmitted or stored, and you can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.
