How to Set a Custom Minecraft Server IconSetting a custom icon for your Minecraft server makes it much easier for your friends and players to spot your server in their multiplayer list. By default, servers show a plain gray icon, but you can change this to any image you like.
You can set your server icon directly using the built-in dashboard settings. Follow the steps below to get your icon set up.
Requirements Before You Start
Before uploading your image, make sure it meets Minecraft's image requirements:
- Format: PNG image only (
.png) - Dimensions: Exactly 64x64 pixels
- File Name: Must be named
server-icon.png - File Size: 64KB or smaller
Need help resizing? If your image is too big or in the wrong format, you can easily convert and resize it for free using an online converter like mcutils.com/server-icon-converter. Just upload your picture, download the formatted
server-icon.pngfile, and you are good to go!
Setting Your Icon

Log in to your dashboard, select your server, and click on the Settings option in the sidebar.
Step 2: Upload Your Image
Scroll down until you find the section titled Server list icon (PNG ≤64KB). Click on the Choose File button and select the 64x64 image from your computer.
Step 3: Save Changes
After selecting your image file, click the Save Branding button to save your settings.
Step 4: Restart Your Server
To apply the changes in Minecraft, click Restart.
Conclusion
Setting a custom icon is a simple way to personalize your Minecraft server. Keep in mind that if your new icon does not show up right away in your server list, Minecraft might just be caching the old one. Simply click the Refresh button on your server list or restart your Minecraft client.
