SVG vs PNG for Twitch Panels
Why Twitch panels need raster uploads and how SVG helps you design them crisply.
Twitch Panel Requirements
Twitch channel panels require a raster PNG, JPG, or GIF upload at a recommended size (commonly 320 pixels wide). Design panel icons and text in SVG for crisp results, then export at this exact width.
- Twitch panels need PNG/JPG/GIF, not SVG
- Recommended panel image width is around 320px
- Design crisp icons and text in SVG before exporting
Keeping a Consistent Panel Set
Use one SVG template for all your panel icons (donate, socials, schedule) so the style stays consistent, exporting each as its own correctly sized PNG for upload.
- One SVG template keeps the whole panel set consistent
- Export each panel icon individually at the right size
- Easy to refresh the whole set by editing one source file
