What Token Maker helps you do

Build tokens in Token Maker without leaving the browser

Token Maker is designed for quick portrait framing, not a long image-editing session. Drop art in, recenter it, and export fast.

Mix borders and masks independently

Token Maker lets you use a circular portrait inside a heavy frame, move to a square crop for handouts, or build hex counters for strategy overlays.

Make output ready for real VTT tables

The Token Maker editor is aimed at DnD, Roll20, Foundry VTT, and similar tabletops where clean transparent PNGs matter more than filters.

Keep repeatable style presets nearby

Token Maker preset groups make it easier to keep monster sets, NPC portraits, and faction markers visually consistent across a campaign.

Export Strategy

Token Size and Resolution: When to Use 512, 1024, or 2048

Use 512 for active play, move to 1024 for long-term libraries, and reserve 2048 for premium assets or special cases.

How Token Maker stays lightweight

1. Drop portrait art into the workspace

Use local files in Token Maker, then frame the subject with wheel zoom and drag positioning until the face reads clearly at token scale.

2. Pick the mask, frame, and accent colors

Choose a circle, square, or polygon crop, then combine it with a border style that fits the role, faction, or encounter tier.

3. Export PNGs for your table

Download a clean PNG from Token Maker and move straight into Roll20, Foundry VTT, Owlbear, or any other map workflow that accepts image tokens.

Token Maker FAQ

What is this token maker used for?

Token Maker is a browser tool for turning character art, monster portraits, and NPC avatars into tabletop tokens with masks, borders, text, and PNG export.

Does Token Maker upload my images to a server?

The default workflow is local-first. Images can stay in the browser while you crop and export, which is useful for private campaign art or paid commissions.

Which virtual tabletops does it fit?

Token Maker export is aimed at popular VTT setups such as Roll20, Foundry VTT, Owlbear Rodeo, and similar tools that accept PNG tokens.

Can I make square and hex tokens, not only circular ones?

Yes. Token Maker already supports circle, square, hexagon, octagon, decagon, and dodecagon style masks so you can match the board you are building for.

Can I add my own border or mask artwork?

Yes. Token Maker supports custom border and mask uploads so you can align the token look with a homebrew setting, paid art pack, or campaign identity.

What export size should I use for VTT tokens?

Token Maker works well at 512 for most tables. Move to 1024 or 2048 when you need sharper marketplace assets, premium handouts, or future-proof library files.

Local processing first

Work on your token in Token Maker first

Drop in character art, crop it, add masks and borders, and export a clean PNG in Token Maker without sending the image elsewhere first. When you need more direction, move into Token Maker template pages, blog posts, or the FAQ.
