1200 × 480
Twitch's recommended size for a profile banner. The studio's 5:2 frame is the same shape.
Twitch scales the banner to 480 px high and stretches it when a browser window is wider than the image, so it suggests keeping the graphics on the left.

Six to start from
Rendered at 5:2 by the studio's own renderer. Each opens there at this size, ready to change and export.
Made to stretch
On a wide monitor Twitch stretches your banner sideways. A photo or a logo warps when that happens; a soft gradient just gets wider.
Go wide if you can
Twitch suggests making the image as wide as possible. The 4K export here is 3840 × 1536, so it stays sharp on big screens.
Match your accent colour
Twitch lets you pick a profile accent colour. Use one of the banner's colours and your channel looks like one piece.
Other sizes
The same studio, set to another place a background goes.
