Pick an Overlay Preset (16 styles)

The app ships 16 overlay presets to match your stream's vibe — from minimal, glass, and neon, all the way to themed premium styles like 8-Bit, Minecraft, and VTuber Alert, plus the new donate-box set (Bank Slip / Newspaper / Arcade / Trading Card).

Step 3 — (VTuber only) pick a sub-style​

Click through them and watch the Live Preview before deciding.


Step 4 — (Premium âœĻ) Upload a custom leader icon​

Premium presets have a leader icon slot (the small image next to the box) — and you can swap it:

  1. Scroll to the Custom Message Leader Icon section (only shown for supported presets: 8-Bit, Garden, Minecraft, Punk, VTuber)
  2. Click Upload → pick a PNG / GIF / WebP file
  3. The image replaces the default icon immediately (e.g. swap Pacman for your channel mascot)

:::tip GIFs make the overlay come alive Upload an animated GIF — like Pacman chomping, a bird flapping, a pickaxe swinging. :::


Step 5 — Save​

Every preset / variant / icon change is saved automatically — your overlay in OBS updates in real time over Socket.io with no need to refresh the browser source.


Tips & Troubleshooting​

  • Live Preview not updating: click Pin → Unpin, or refresh the Settings page.
  • Premium preset looks "off" in OBS: make sure your Browser Source width matches the width value in the URL — if it's too wide it gets cropped.
  • Uploaded leader icon doesn't show: check the file is < 5 MB and a supported format (PNG/JPG/GIF/WebP/SVG).
  • Switching presets messes up your font: each preset has a different default font — re-set the font in styling after switching.
