LinkedIn Banner Size: 1584×396 (Free Resizer, No Upload)
The LinkedIn banner is prime personal-branding real estate, but its wide 4:1 shape and the way your profile photo overlaps it trip people up. Size it correctly and it looks polished on every device.
The correct LinkedIn banner size
- Resolution: 1584 × 396 pixels
- Aspect ratio: 4:1
- Formats: JPG, PNG, GIF (up to 8 MB)
This is for the personal profile background. (LinkedIn company page cover images are 1128 × 191 — a different spec.)
How to resize your banner
- Open the image resizer.
- Drop in your image.
- Set the size to 1584 × 396.
- Download — it's all done in your browser, nothing uploaded.
If your image isn't 4:1, crop it to a 4:1 frame first so resizing doesn't distort it.
Mind the overlap
On desktop, your circular profile photo sits over the lower-left of the banner. Keep your name, tagline, or logo in the upper-right area so nothing important is hidden. Preview on mobile too — the crop differs slightly.
Tips
- Use a simple, on-brand background. A subtle pattern or a single message beats a busy photo.
- Export sharp. If your source is small, upscale it before resizing so the wide banner stays crisp.
