You've probably noticed how stickers can add a fun and personalized touch to conversations on Discord. While it's simple to use the available ones, you might wonder how to copy and use your favorite stickers in different chats or on your server.
Starting with the Discord web version, you need to find the sticker, inspect its source, and save it correctly.
But what comes next is important to make sure the sticker maintains its quality and compatibility. Let's explore how you can convert and upload these stickers efficiently, enhancing your server's engagement and your interactions.
What might surprise you is the versatility you can achieve with a few adjustments.
Opening Discord on Browser
To begin accessing stickers from Discord, open the web version in your browser. This is important because the Inspect Element feature, which you'll need, isn't available in the Discord app.
By using your browser, you gain access to a set of tools that can help you manipulate and save web content, including those beloved Discord stickers. So, immerse yourself in your browser—whether it's Chrome, Firefox, or another—and navigate to Discord's site.
Log in as you would in the app. This direct approach not only streamlines your sticker acquisition process but prepares you for the next important steps involving Inspect Element.
Using Inspect Element
Now that you're logged into Discord on your browser, let's explore how you can use Inspect Element to copy and save stickers. To start, hit Ctrl + Shift + C. This shortcut opens Inspect Element directly.
Once open, it helps you delve into the coding behind the scenes of your favorite Discord Stickers. Don't worry, you don't need to understand all the code! Just look for the link that begins with https://cdn.discordapp.com—this is your sticker's source file.
Right-click on this link and choose to open it in a new tab. From there, you can save the sticker easily.
You'll soon master collecting your favorite stickers from Discord with ease!
Locating Sticker Source File
Once you've opened Inspect Element, locating the sticker source file is straightforward; simply look for the URL starting with https://cdn.discordapp.com. When you're in your Discord Server, hover your cursor over the sticker you want. Press Ctrl + Shift + C to activate Inspect Element directly. This will highlight the sticker element.
Here's a quick guide:

After locating the sticker source file using Inspect Element, you'll need to save it to your device before converting it from WEBP to PNG for easier use in Discord.
To do this, right-click on the sticker link in the Elements panel and choose “Save as…” to download the file. Once saved, you'll have to convert the file to PNG format, which is more versatile for sharing and editing.
