Question 1

What are the exact Discord animated emoji size and KB limits?

Accepted Answer

Discord server emojis resize to 128x128 pixels and reject any upload over 256 KB. MakerGIF compresses palette depth and frame cadence until your GIF passes 256 KB automatically.

Question 2

Can I turn a static PNG avatar or pet photo into an animated Discord emoji?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upload any PNG/JPG/WebP avatar or test with our built-in cat sample, click one of the 8 free presets (Bounce, Shake, Party, Spin, Wiggle, Nod, Pulse, Bonk), and export under 256 KB without logging in.

Question 3

Does MakerGIF also work for Slack custom emojis under 128KB?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Switch the target preset to Slack (<128KB) and our optimizer tightens palette and frame stride automatically to fit Slack strict limits.

Question 4
