Resize an image for LinkedIn
Make post images, profile banners and profile photos the size LinkedIn expects, so they look sharp and aren’t cropped in odd places. Free and private.
LinkedIn sizes this tool uses
| Use | Size |
|---|---|
| Post or link image | 1200 × 627 px |
| Square post | 1200 × 1200 px |
| Profile banner (background) | 1584 × 396 px |
| Profile photo | 400 × 400 px |
Pick the size from the list above the drop zone. If your photo is a different shape, it's cropped to fill from the centre, or you can fit it inside and add a border instead. Several photos at once come back in one ZIP.
Why the exact size matters
LinkedIn crops images that are the wrong shape, and its banner is a very wide 4:1 strip. Sizing it yourself means you decide what shows. On the banner, your profile photo covers part of the left side, so keep important details centred or to the right.
Your photos stay on your device
Most resizers upload your photo to their server first. This one does the work in your browser, so nothing is sent anywhere. Resizing also leaves out the hidden location and camera details that phones save inside photos.
Frequently asked questions
What size should a LinkedIn post image be?
1200 × 627 pixels for a landscape image, or 1200 × 1200 for a square one, which takes up more room in the feed.
What size is the LinkedIn banner?
1584 × 396 pixels. Most photos are a different shape, so the tool crops from the centre, or you can fit the photo inside with a border.
What size is a LinkedIn profile photo?
At least 400 × 400 pixels, square. LinkedIn shows it in a circle, so keep your face in the middle.
Is my image uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser.
