Discord is a free app that combines the text chat aspects of Internet Relay Chat and the voice chat aspects of Skype and Teamspeak. You can chat with other users and speak to other users through it. Now, we bet you’re probably thinking if Skype and IRC exist, why was Discord created?

Initially, Jason Citron, CEO and founder of Discord, created Discord out of a need for gaming clans and guilds to communicate with one another in a faster and stronger manner. Before Discord and other apps of this type were created, most games didn’t have effective communication tools built into them. Discord has been around for more than four years, and it’s really helped gamers step up their game, with its voice and text capabilities, and its multiple server and channel support.

Another great aspect of the app is how it is just so user-friendly. It is free, secure, and works on both your desktop and phone. To add to that, you can even make your own emojis with it!

First Part

  1. Open Discord. The app is easy to find; it has a blue icon that looks like a crab and is part of the Windows menu.
  2. Once Discord is open, pick a server. There are several servers to choose from on the left side of the screen. Remember this important detail – any emoji you upload can be used only on that server.
  3. Click the button with three horizontal bars. It’s near the top of the screen, to the right of the server’s name.
  4. Go to Server Settings. It’s on the left column, on the left side of the screen.
  5. Click on the Emoji button also in the left column.

  1. Click on the Upload Emoji button. It is a blue button and is at the top right corner of the screen.
  2. Upload the image. After you upload, give it a name. This is very important. Usually, if you download an image, it will be randomly generated or something long and unrecognizable. When you go into chat to reference it, you might not be able to find it if it’s too long and has a confusing name.
  3. To add an animated emoji all you have to do is click upload emoji, select an image of Gif format, and upload.
  4. What if the Gif is too big? Then you will have to compress it, which can be done at a site like ezgif.com.

Third Part

  1. If you are an admin or administrator of a server, you can upload whatever image you want and it will automatically be resized, with proper dimensions. If you don’t have those privileges, it is fine. All you have to do is go to ezgif.com, choose the file you want to compress, upload it, then press the Optimize Gif button. You need to make sure the kilobyte size is under what Discord is asking for, so just compress it a little more.
  2. If it still doesn’t work with the maximum settings, hit the resize button, adjust the percentage, and you will be able to see that the image is smaller.
  3. Hit the save button, go back to the Discord server, click on the Upload emoji, and upload the one you just created.
    You are done!
