1. With Inspect Element
If you’re using Discord on your PC, follow these steps to enlarge someone’s profile picture.
2. Take Advantage of Chrome’s Build-in Google Lens Function
An alternative method to get your hands on a user’s profile picture is to use Chrome’s new built-in Google Lens functionality. This way, you’ll be able to find similar images, and of you’re lucky, even the image itself on the Web. Of course, this won’t work with profile pictures that show the user’s original content.
3. Use a Bot
Using a Bot is another way you can enlarge and save other people’s profile pictures. However, this option is limited to only servers where these bots have been added. Not all bots can help you view users’ profile pictures, only a select few. These include:
DynoDank MemerProBotMudaeAyana
Note that this method works whether you’re using Discord on your PC or mobile. The steps are quite similar in both cases. You should start the process by checking to see if the server where the person with the cool profile pic is has the right bot(s) installed. Scroll down all the way to the bottom of the user list to see all the bots available for a certain server. In our case, we noticed the server is using the Dyno bot. Keep in mind that most servers have a special bot channel where you can go to execute commands.
Adding Bots to Your Own Server
Now, if you’re on a server that doesn’t use any of these bots, you may be out of luck. Chances are you won’t be able to add the bots yourself, as you need certain permissions, such as “Manage Server” or Administrator to do so. However, if you own a server, it might be useful to know how to add a bot that can help you enlarge and download users’ profile pics.
1. Can I also enlarge and save avatars that are GIFs?
Yes, you can by employing either the first or third method above.
2. How can I create my own bot?
If you don’t like the options that are available for you, you can create a bot. The process isn’t super simple, but we have a guide that details all the steps to make your own Discord bot.
3. How do I get my own cool avatar?
Discord lets you use just about any picture or GIF as your avatar, so the options are endless. However, there are specific websites that offer pre-made options, such as Discord Avatars and Icon Archive. Alternatively, if you wish to get a little creative, try the Discord Avatar Maker website that allows you to create fun and colorful avatars for Discord.
