Create Custom Animated GIFs for Discord
Make animated server icons, custom emojis, reaction GIFs, and avatar animations for Discord. Upload any image, pick a style, and get your GIF in seconds — free.
로고, 아바타, 밈 또는 사진으로 Discord용 애니메이션 이모지, 서버 아이콘, 스티커와 프로필 GIF를 만드세요. Moxion의 Discord GIF 메이커는 프레임별 편집 없이 움직임을 더합니다. 이미지를 업로드하고 원하는 동작을 설명하면 다운로드 가능한 반복 애니메이션을 생성할 수 있습니다. 파일을 만드는 데 Discord Nitro는 필요하지 않지만, 애니메이션 아바타나 서버 아이콘 같은 특정 용도에는 Nitro 또는 서버 부스트가 필요할 수 있습니다. 이모지, 스티커, 아이콘은 크기와 파일 용량 제한이 각각 다르므로 제작 화면에서 규격 안내와 압축, 크기 조정 도구를 함께 확인할 수 있습니다. 로고에는 은은한 펄스나 반짝임을, 리액션에는 표현력 있는 동작을, 아바타에는 자연스럽고 절제된 얼굴 움직임을 사용하세요. 먼저 애니메이션을 만든 뒤 실제 Discord 용도에 맞게 완성 GIF를 조정하면 됩니다.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I make a GIF for Discord?›
Upload any image, pick an animation style (Logo Pulse for server icons, Reaction styles for emotes), and download the GIF. Then upload it to Discord as a custom emoji or profile picture. Takes under a minute.
What size should a Discord animated emoji be?›
Discord requires custom emojis to be under 256 KB and at most 128×128 pixels. After downloading your GIF, use our free GIF Compressor to reduce the file size if needed.
Can I make an animated Discord profile picture?›
Yes. Discord Nitro subscribers can use animated GIFs as their avatar. Upload a portrait or character image, pick "Head Turn" or "Eye Blink", and set the GIF as your Discord profile picture.
How do I make an animated Discord server icon?›
Upload your server logo, select the Logo tab, and pick Pulse or Shimmer. Download the GIF and go to Server Settings → Overview → Server Icon to upload it. Server boosts Level 1+ allow animated icons.
Can I create Discord stickers with this tool?›
Yes — Discord stickers support APNG and GIF formats up to 500 KB. Generate your animated GIF here, compress it if needed, then upload in Server Settings → Stickers.
Is this tool free for Discord use?›
네. 하루에 GIF 1개를 무료로 생성할 수 있습니다. 신규 계정에는 가입 증정 Credits가 제공되지 않습니다. 공용 Quick Preview는 매일 1회 무료입니다.
What are Discord's file size limits for GIFs?›
Discord has three GIF file size limits depending on where you use them: Custom emoji must be under 256 KB at 128×128 pixels. Stickers must be under 500 KB at 320×320 pixels. General file uploads are limited to 8 MB for free accounts and 25 MB for Nitro subscribers.
Do I need Discord Nitro to use animated emojis?›
You do not need Nitro to upload animated emojis to your own server — any server admin can add custom animated emoji. You do need Nitro to use those animated emojis outside your home server. For animated profile pictures and animated server banners, Nitro is required.
What animation styles work best for Discord emojis?›
For reaction emotes, the Burst Laugh, Shock Drop, and Head Bob styles read well at 128×128 pixels. For server icons, Logo Pulse and Logo Shimmer work best — they loop cleanly and stay readable at small sizes.
How do I upload a GIF as a Discord emoji?›
Download your GIF, then go to your Discord server → Server Settings → Emoji → Upload Emoji. Select your GIF file. If the file is over 256 KB, run it through the GIF Compressor first. The emoji name defaults to the filename — you can rename it before saving.
Can I convert a video clip into a Discord GIF?›
Not directly in this tool — the Discord GIF Maker works with still images. To convert a video clip to a GIF for Discord, upload your video to the MOV to GIF tool first, then use the GIF Compressor to get it under the emoji or sticker size limit.
