Tips for your twitch overlay
- Match your OBS canvas (Settings → Video → Base resolution). Designing at the canvas size means no scaling blur.
- Even if you stream at 720p, designing at 1920 × 1080 keeps a sharp master you can export smaller.
- Leave the centre clear for gameplay and keep important elements away from the edges, where some players crop.
- Animated overlays should be WebM with alpha. Animated GIFs are large and limited to 256 colours.
