These limits come from Discord's developer documentation. KB here means 1,024 bytes.

Getting an image under the limit

Crop to a square first, because a wide image gets squeezed or cut when it's scaled down. Then reduce the file size: for a static PNG, fewer colors help most, and for a GIF, fewer frames and colors do. Detail disappears at chat size, so a simple shape with a bold outline reads better than a shrunken photo.
