Upload 1920×384 for a crisp banner
Reddit's profile banner is a wide 1920×384 strip (5:1). It sits behind your avatar and name, so keep important graphics out of the lower-left where the avatar overlaps, and center key content because mobile trims the sides.
Subreddit banners differ
This is the user profile banner. Subreddit header banners use their own dimensions in the community appearance settings, so don't reuse the same file blindly.
Format and limit
