Minecraft server banner guide
A server banner is the first thing players see on server-list sites such as Minecraft Multiplayer, TopG and Minecraft Server List. Voters and new players scroll past dozens of listings, so an animated banner that shows your name, IP and best features in a few seconds earns more clicks than a plain text entry.
What size is a Minecraft server banner?
Most server lists use the standard 468 × 60 banner size. Every banner here is made at 468 × 60 and delivered as optimized animated GIFs in several file sizes, so you can pick the one that fits each site's upload limit. Current listings also include an MP4 copy for sites and social posts that accept video.
What should I put on my banner?
- Your server name, large and easy to read.
- The IP address players will type, such as play.yourserver.net.
- Two or three short selling points: game modes, version, economy or events.
- Keep each line short. Text is automatically scaled and wrapped to fit the design.
How fast will I receive it?
Banners are rendered automatically after payment and usually arrive by email within 1 to 15 minutes. If you spot a typo after delivery, contact support and we can correct it.
Make the rest of your server match
Pair your banner with a Minecraft server icon for the multiplayer list and a server logo for your website, store and Discord. For design tips, read our Minecraft server banner guidelines.
