How it works

How to download a Discord profile picture

  1. Turn on Developer Mode

    In Discord, open User Settings, go to Advanced and switch on Developer Mode. It is what adds “Copy User ID” to the menus.

  2. Copy the User ID

    Right-click a user (press and hold on a phone) and choose Copy User ID. It is a number 17 to 20 digits long — not the username.

  3. Paste it and press Download

    Paste the ID above, press Download and pass the quick human check. The profile picture and the banner come up, each with its own download button.

What you get

Full-size avatars and banners

Discord shows a profile picture at 80 px on a profile and smaller still next to a message. The file behind it is larger: this tool asks Discord’s CDN for the 1024 px version, which is the most it serves. Still images save as PNG; an animated avatar or banner — the Nitro kind — saves as the GIF it is.

A user who never set a picture gets one of Discord’s default avatars, and that is what you will see. Banners only exist on accounts that have set one; otherwise the card shows the profile’s banner color.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I download someone’s Discord pfp?

Copy their User ID (Developer Mode on, then right-click → Copy User ID), paste it above and press Download. Then press Download Avatar to save the picture.

What size is the downloaded profile picture?

Up to 1024 × 1024 px — the largest Discord’s CDN serves. If the original upload was smaller, Discord scales it.

Can I download animated Discord avatars?

Yes. An animated avatar or banner is saved as a GIF, with its animation. Still ones are saved as PNG.

Can I download a server-specific avatar?

No. The tool shows the main profile picture of the account. An avatar set for one server only is not part of the public profile Discord returns.

Do I need to log in to Discord?

No. You never give us a Discord login, and the person whose picture you save is not notified.
