Practical tips

  • Twitch animated emotes must be GIF files, square, no larger than 1MB per file, and no more than 60 frames.
  • Transparent fit keeps the complete artwork visible; crop-to-fill uses the center square for a larger chat presence.

Frequently asked questions

Does this keep the animation?

Yes. The output is a real GIF89a animation with the source frame timing rebuilt for the selected size.

What happens when a GIF is larger than 1MB?

The encoder first reduces colors, then samples frames evenly while preserving total timing. If the smallest safe result is still too large, downloading is blocked with a clear message.

Which Twitch sizes are generated?

The page can generate 112x112, 56x56, and 28x28 files for manual upload. Twitch Auto-resize can also use the 112x112 file as a single source.

Are my GIFs uploaded?

No. Decoding, optimization, preview, and export all happen locally in your browser.
