To get an animated GIF as your profile banner on Discord, you have to be a Nitro member (it costs $9.99 per month). If you are already one, you can upload GIF format files. But do note that you can crop images after they are uploaded but you can’t crop GIFs.

  • You will see Profile Banner where the minimum size and recommended aspect ratio is mentioned.
  • Once you have your GIF ready, go ahead and upload banner by clicking on the Upload Banner button.
