Where to Find Emotes for Your Discord Server

You would create emotes for your Discord server in much the same way that you would create them for Twitch, YouTube, or any other platform. You can design them yourself or look to have them created by another designer.

Have them Custom Designed

Using a professional designer to create your emotes will ensure that you get the emotes that you want from the very beginning. Here are a few places where you can find freelanced work:

1. Own3D

   Own3D has several packs of emotes that you can purchase for your server. While these are optimized for Twitch, they can also be used on your channel (very easily if you sync your accounts). You can also reach out to the company to have custom emotes designed. Own3D has been in the industry for years and has a lot of experience in helping streamers and gamers grow their channels.

2. Fiverr Freelancer

   You can also find a freelancer on Fiverr to create your Discord emotes for you. Browse through the portfolios to find a designer you like, then be clear about what you want them to create for you.

Designing Emotes for Yourself

You can also learn how to make Discord emotes yourself if you have an artistic eye and want to learn. Here are a few programs that you can use:

1. Gimp

   Gimp is free software that offers several different design elements. It is a good program for beginners who want to learn the basics of design.

2. Adobe Photoshop/Adobe Illustrator

   You can also use Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator to create emotes. While these are more advanced programs, once you learn how to use them well, you have the potential of creating almost anything.

Discord Emote Size

• The file size of the custom emote must not exceed 256 kb.
• While you can use images that are 128×128 (or greater value), they will be resized to 32×32.
• If you are designing use thick lines to help things stand out and worry less about adding tiny details that won't be noticed once they are resized.

How Many Custom Emotes Can You Have on Discord?

You can have up to 50 emotes on Discord for anyone to use. If you (and others) have boosted it with Nitro, you may be able to upload more.

Discord Nitro also unlocks the ability to have animated emotes on your Discord channel.

How to Sync Your Twitch Emotes to Your Discord Channel

You can also sync your Twitch channel to your Discord channel through Twitch Integration, which will auto-sync your Twitch emotes. Only your subscribers (Twitch will sync those as well) will be able to use the emotes.

Conclusion

Having custom emotes in your Discord server is a great way to build gaming or streaming community. Work together with your teammates to decide which emotes to upload.
