Logo Size and Opacity: Finding the Visual Sweet Spot
· Best Practices
Too big and logos distract. Too small and they're invisible. Here's how to dial in the perfect settings.
Logo sizing is a balancing act. Sponsors want visibility, but your audience is there for the content, not the advertising. Finding the sweet spot keeps both parties happy.
A good starting point is 150-200 pixels for most stream resolutions. This makes logos clearly visible without dominating the screen. For banner-style displays along the bottom, wider logos at a smaller height often work better than square formats.
Opacity control adds another layer of finesse. Setting a logo to 80-90% opacity softens its visual impact while keeping it perfectly readable. During high-action moments, a slightly transparent logo feels less intrusive.
Keep aspect ratio preservation enabled to prevent logos from stretching or squishing. Brands care about how their logo is displayed, and a distorted logo is worse than no logo at all.
The size input supports both slider adjustment and direct numerical entry, giving you precise control whether you're doing rough placement or fine-tuning pixel by pixel.
