Twitch PFP Maker
On Twitch your profile picture appears in chat, on your channel, and in raids — often as a small circle against dark UI. Drop in a photo, cut out the background in your browser, and make an avatar that holds up on Twitch's dark theme.
Twitch profile picture size

|---|---|---|---|
| Channel & chat | Circle, ~256px on channel | 256×256 | JPEG, PNG, GIF (≤10MB) — 256×256 is Twitch's recommended size. |

Remove the background right here. Processing runs 100% in your browser — your photo never leaves your device.
PNG, JPG, or WebP
The first background you remove downloads the model: about 100 MB, or 111 MB if your browser runs it on the GPU. It is cached after that.
Twitch profile picture size
Twitch recommends a 256×256 profile image and accepts JPEG, PNG, and GIF files up to 10MB. It's shown as a circle in chat and on your channel, so center your subject. Because Twitch's interface is dark by default, a cutout that only reads on a white background can vanish — pick a color that stands out against dark gray.
Remove the background on your device
The background remover runs in your browser, so your photo is never uploaded anywhere. Cut your face or logo out cleanly, place it on a bright, high-contrast color for the dark Twitch UI, and export. The same transparent cutout works for panels and offline screens too.

Frequently asked questions
What size should a Twitch profile picture be?
Twitch recommends 256×256. It accepts JPEG, PNG, and GIF files up to 10MB and displays the image as a circle.
Does Twitch allow animated profile pictures?
Twitch accepts GIF uploads for profile images. This tool produces still PNG cutouts, which work for every account.
Why does my Twitch avatar disappear in chat?
Twitch's default theme is dark. A cutout placed on white or a dark color blends in — use a bright, contrasting background color so it stays visible.
Is my photo uploaded when removing the background?
No. Removing the background is local work: your browser does it and the file does not move. Generating an AI portrait is different — that one hands the photo from your browser to Google, billed to your own Gemini key. Drewvy sees neither, having no image server and no account to attach a photo to.
