Create a Patreon creator cover image →Design tips
Patreon's updated creator page recommends a cover image at least 2500×1000 pixels in JPG or PNG under 3MB. Patreon's same Help Center article retains separate legacy-page guidance at 1600×400, so check which editor your page uses.
- •Use 2500×1000 for the updated creator page and verify the preview before publishing.
- •Keep important subjects toward the right half and avoid relying on text inside the cover.
- •If your editor shows the legacy layout, follow Patreon's separate 1600×400 guidance instead.
What you need to know
For the updated creator page, Patreon displays the cover at up to 2500×1000 pixels and recommends an upload at least that large. The page title and About content sit on the left, so Patreon recommends keeping key visuals toward the right and avoiding text where possible.
Patreon's current Help Center article also contains a legacy creator-page section with a 1600×400 maximum display and a 16MB file limit. Those figures describe a different page experience; they are not silently interchangeable with the updated 2500×1000 treatment.
Use the editor preview to identify your version and inspect the crop before publishing. On the updated page, supply JPG or PNG under 3MB and leave the left side visually quiet enough for overlaid page information.
