Best LinkedIn Photo Sizes (and How to Resize) | Bsbshs
Open the tool →A sharp, correctly-sized LinkedIn photo makes a strong first impression. Wrong dimensions get cropped or blurred. Here are the LinkedIn image sizes and how to resize your photo to fit.
LinkedIn image sizes
- Profile photo — 400 × 400 pixels (square); displays in a circle, so centre your face.
- Cover / background — 1584 × 396 pixels.
- Shared post image — 1200 × 627 pixels.
- Company logo — 300 × 300 pixels.
How to resize for LinkedIn
- Open the Resize tool and add your photo.
- Crop to a square first for the profile photo so nothing important is cut by the circle.
- Set the pixel dimensions for the format you need.
- Download and upload.
Keep it professional and sharp
Use a clear, well-lit headshot with a simple background. Resize down to the exact pixels rather than uploading a huge file, so LinkedIn doesn't compress it into softness. Export as JPG at high quality.
Do it privately
A browser resizer works on your device, so your photo isn't uploaded before you post it.
