LinkedIn Profile Photo Resizer

What matters

LinkedIn Profile Photo dimensions at a glance

LinkedIn profile photos are displayed as circles across the platform — next to posts, in search results, on connection requests, and on your profile page. A 400×400 upload provides enough resolution for all display contexts.

On a professional platform, your profile photo is your handshake. Recruiters, clients, and colleagues form an impression before reading a single word. A crisp, well-framed headshot builds immediate credibility.

Low-resolution photos look pixelated and unprofessional in a business context. Non-square uploads get awkwardly cropped by the circular mask, potentially cutting off your face or creating an off-center composition.

Best practices

Use the crop intentionally

• Use a professional headshot with good lighting and a clean background.
• Center your face with generous padding so the circular crop doesn't clip your head.
• Avoid group photos, logos, or full-body shots — your face should be immediately recognizable at small sizes.
