Resize an Image for LinkedIn
Get your LinkedIn images crisp and correctly framed (profile, banner and posts) with the exact recommended dimensions.
For LinkedIn, use 400×400px for your profile photo, 1584×396px for the background banner, and 1200×627px for a shared post or link image. Crop to the right aspect ratio first, then resize to those pixels so nothing important gets cut off. Our Crop and Resize tools do both in your browser.
| Profile photo | 400 × 400 px (square, min 268×268) |
|---|---|
| Background banner | 1584 × 396 px (4:1) |
| Shared post / link image | 1200 × 627 px (1.91:1) |
| Company logo | 300 × 300 px |

How to do it
- 1
Pick the placement
Profile 400×400, banner 1584×396, or shared post 1200×627: choose what you're updating.
- 2
Crop to the aspect ratio
Use Crop Image to match the ratio (1:1 for profile, 4:1 for banner) so your subject sits inside the frame.
- 3
Resize to the exact pixels
Set the target dimensions in Image Resizer so LinkedIn doesn't upscale a soft version.
- 4
Compress and upload
Run a light compression so it uploads fast without visible quality loss.
- Keep your face centred and filling the frame in the profile photo. It displays as a small circle.
- The banner is heavily cropped on mobile. Keep key text and logos in the middle third.
- Link previews use 1200×627: set that image on your page's Open Graph tags so shared links look right.
