What Size Should a Twitch Webcam Overlay Be? (2026)
The correct twitch webcam overlay size is 1280x720 for a 16:9 camera (800x600 for 4:3). Here's the full spec, the file rules, and how to make it look sharp.
The exact size
A twitch webcam overlay should be 1280x720 for a 16:9 camera (800x600 for 4:3). Match the frame to your camera's ratio, not the canvas. Scale down in OBS, never up.
Getting it sharp
Frame above camera in the source list so the cutout shows your face. Design at the largest size and let the platform scale down - upscaling a small file makes every edge soft. If you're making emotes, badges or channel-point icons, our free resizer exports every required size from one image, with a preview of how it reads small.
