Why the exact size matters

When you upload something bigger than the platform expects, it is resized on their servers — usually with a fast algorithm that softens edges and introduces artefacts around text. Resizing to the exact pixel dimensions first means the platform has nothing to change, and what you approved is what appears.

The tool above centre-crops to 1:1 and then scales to exactly 400 × 400. If your source has an important element near an edge, crop it yourself with the image cropper first.

LinkedIn Profile photo — FAQ

What is the LinkedIn profile photo size?
400 × 400 pixels (1:1). Displayed as a circle, so a plain background and a centred head works best.
What file format should I use?
JPG or PNG. JPG is smallest for photographs; PNG is better when there is flat colour or text.
Does this tool upload my image?
No. The crop and resize both happen in your browser through the canvas API — there is no upload on this page.
Can I get a PNG instead of a JPG?
Yes, the tool offers both downloads from the same result.
