What to expect for a Twitch banner (1200 × 480)

We resized three test photos to 1200 × 480 pixels with this exact tool (saved as JPG, crop to fill). Here is how much of each photo was kept and how big the file came out:

Test photoWhat the crop trimsJPG file size
Group photo, 1920 × 1280top and bottom (keeps 60% of the height)98 KB
Portrait, 1920 × 1350top and bottom (keeps 57% of the height)129 KB
Group of four, 1920 × 1537top and bottom (keeps 50% of the height)157 KB
Result: 1200 × 480 pixels for every photo. “Enlarged” means the test photo was smaller than the target after cropping.

Where this size is used

  • The profile banner on a Twitch channel.
  • Wide banners for gaming communities and streaming pages.
  • Headers for streamer websites.

How to resize your image

  1. Add one photo or many. Each one is resized to 1200 × 480 pixels straight away.
  2. Keep Crop to fill for an exact size with no borders, or pick Fit with border to keep the whole picture.
  3. Choose JPG, PNG or WebP, then download one file or all of them as a ZIP.

Twitch places your name and avatar over parts of the banner. Keep a simple background behind those areas and put details in the middle.

Questions

What file size will my banner be?

Our test photos came out at about 100 to 160 KB as JPG.

Will my photo be stretched?

No. With Crop to fill the photo keeps its proportions and the parts outside the Twitch banner shape are trimmed evenly. Choose Stretch only if you really want the whole picture squeezed into the size.

Is my image uploaded?

No. Resizing happens in your own browser, so the photo never leaves your device. There is no sign-up and no watermark.

Can I also make the file smaller in KB?

Yes. After resizing, use the image compressor to reach a size such as 20, 50 or 100 KB.
