Hey! So, I tried to cheer my friend up by offering to make him some emotes for his twitch - I was happy with the end results in the usual 1000x px piece but it looks like ass when you downscale it to emote sizes (112x, 56x & 28x) and you can't recognize what it is But I've seen lots of other emotes that look still detailed and smooth in those sizes (like they aren't 28px at all but they are?) I'm self-taught and I don't know much about scaling (dont even know much about twitch either) and I'm at my wits end, If anyone could help that would be amazing - I'd even pay at this point, I just want my friend to be happy

This is as close as I can get it at 56x57px.

:/ From my experience, that's sadly what happens when you draw on a big canvas and then size the image down a lot. My suggestion would be to draw at 2x the max emote size, then size down. Give it a shot with drawing something simple, see if it works for you first.

Ex. if the max Twitch emote size is 112x112, draw at 224x224, then scale down 50%. Remember that small details will be lost as you resize, so keep things simple and feel free to exaggerate expressions and accentuate things a bit more than usual.

Hope it works out! 👍

You are amazing, thankyou SOso much ;^;
