Why 512x512 Is the Right Size

In the server sidebar the icon renders at roughly 48 pixels. That is small enough that detailed logos turn to mush, so the useful work is choosing a simple, high contrast mark and cropping it tightly rather than shrinking a busy full logo.

Why does my server icon look unreadable?

At 48 pixels a detailed logo loses all fine detail. Use a simple symbol or a short abbreviation instead of a full wordmark.

Is the server icon the same as a profile picture?

Both use a 512 x 512 square, but the server icon represents the community and appears in the sidebar rather than next to your messages.
