Are you creating your own custom graphics for your live stream and want to make sure they fit your stream perfectly? Here are the specs for every brand asset on StreamYard.
Pro Tip: You can select multiple files to bulk upload multiple brand assets at once!
Quick sizes:
Logos: 200x200
Overlays/Backgrounds: 1280x720
Logos
When adding your logo to your StreamYard dashboard, be sure your logo uses the following requirements.
- Size: 200 x 200px
- File type: JPG, PNG or GIF (with a transparent background)
To add your logo enter the studio and click "Brand" then click the plus (+) sign under "Logo."
Overlays
To add a custom overlay to your StreamYard live broadcast, first design your transparent image in your favorite graphics program, such as Figma, Canva, Easil, or Photoshop.
- Size: 1280 x 720px
- File size: less than 20mb (under 3mb for GIFs)
- File type: JPG, PNG or GIF (with a transparent background)
Overlays are always full screen, but they can be transparent so you don't cover yourself or your guests when you display the overlay in your live stream.
Here's how to make a custom transparent overlay similar to the default overlay in the studio.
To upload your own overlay enter the studio and click "Brand" then click the plus (+) sign under "Overlay."
Video Clips
You can also upload video clips to your StreamYard Brand folders.
Video clips are a great place to add an intro video, a countdown timer, or an outro video to end your broadcast.
- Size: 16:9 ratio
- File size: less than 200mb (1.2gb on StreamYard Business)
- File type: MP4
- Length: under 10 mins (60 minutes on StreamYard Business)
To upload your video clip enter the studio and click "Brand" then click the plus (+) sign under "Video Clips."
If your video is longer than supported, you can use the local video sharing feature instead. Here's how.
Backgrounds
To add a custom background in StreamYard, start by creating your background design in your favorite graphics program. We recommend Canva or Figma.
- Size: 1280x720px
- File size: 20mb (3mb for GIFs)
- File type: JPG or PNG
Remember, your background image will go behind you and your guests' video feeds. It is not a virtual background so it won't replace your home/office behind you. Learn more about green screen virtual backgrounds here.
Note: At this time, we do not support video backgrounds.
Tickers
Tickers (scrolling banners) fill the entire frame horizontally, and are 42px tall (in a 1280x720px canvas)
