# Add a server icon

Changing your Minecraft server icon is an excellent way to update your server's appearance quickly and easily. It's really easy to add an icon to your server. 

## Preparing the icon

You must follow three simple rules when preparing your icon. 

Use a tool like [Simple Image Resizer](https://www.simpleimageresizer.com/) to change your image size to 64x64 pixels.

Rename the file to `server-icon` and ensure the file type is PNG.

{% hint style="info" %}
We recommend using a simple icon that's high contrast, so that the colours properly display and stand out against Minecraft's server list background.
{% endhint %}

## Uploading the icon

Head over to the [Game Panel](https://game.lodestone.host) and select "File Manager" on the sidebar menu.

You can now click "Upload" and select the image from your local files.

Once it's uploaded, restart your server for the icon to display in-game.
