Emote Size Guide

Use this hub when you need the right dimensions before choosing a resizer. It groups emotes, emojis, badges, stickers, channel point icons, and GIFs by platform so every asset points back to the right tool page.

Key Takeaways
  • Twitch emotes use 112×112, 56×56, and 28×28. Twitch badges use 72×72, 36×36, and 18×18.
  • Discord emojis use 128×128 under 256KB. Discord static stickers use a 320×320 canvas under 512KB.
  • Kick emotes use 500×500. YouTube channel emojis and badges use square static images from 48×48 to 480×480.
  • Third-party emote platforms such as 7TV, BTTV, and FFZ often need custom sizing, so start from the platform's current upload flow.

How to Choose the Right Page

Search intent matters. If someone searches for a resizer, they should land on a tool page with the uploader near the top. If someone searches for a size guide, they should get a clear answer first and then a link to the right tool.

This hub is designed to support the tool cluster, not replace it. Use the table above to decide which exact resizer page should receive the strongest internal link.

Source File Advice

  • Start from the largest clean source you have, then scale down for small chat sizes.
  • Use transparent PNG for static emotes, badges, and icons when the background should disappear.
  • Keep animated GIF loops short if the target platform has a strict size limit.
  • Check the smallest output size before uploading; 18×18 and 28×28 are where most detail fails.

Size Intent Map

A general emote size guide should answer broad comparison searches first, then send users to the exact tool that matches their asset. Someone searching for an image resizer 72x72 may be making a Twitch subscriber badge, while someone searching for a small square emoji may need Discord, Slack-style, or custom emoji output.

Do not force every size query through one generic workflow. Match the query to the platform rule, the file format, and the upload context before resizing.

When a Size Converter Is Better Than a Guide

  • Use a guide when you need to know the platform rule before editing.
  • Use a size converter when you already know the target size and need the file exported.
  • Use a compressor when the dimensions are correct but the upload still fails because the file is too large.
  • Use a custom resizer when the platform is 7TV, BTTV, FFZ, or another service with changing upload requirements.

FAQ

What is the most common emote size?

For Twitch-style emotes, 112×112, 56×56, and 28×28 are the common set. Discord custom emoji commonly use 128×128.

Should I make one page for every size keyword?

No. Group related size keywords by parent topic. Use one strong tool page for each resizer intent and guide pages for supporting informational intent.

Do badges and emotes use the same resize logic?

Yes. The core crop, resize, transparency, and export logic is the same; only the preset dimensions and file limits change.

What does image resizer 72x72 usually mean for stream assets?

For Twitch creators, 72×72 is the largest subscriber badge size. Export 36×36 and 18×18 at the same time so the badge stays consistent in every display context.

Is a small square emoji always 128x128?

No. Discord uses 128×128 for custom emoji, but other tools and chat platforms may use smaller or custom square sizes. Use the platform rule first, then resize.

Should I resize before compressing?

Yes. Resize to the target dimensions first. Compression is most useful after the canvas and crop are already correct.
