How to make a LinkedIn background banner
The LinkedIn background photo, often called the banner, is the strip behind your profile picture. LinkedIn recommends 1584 × 396 pixels, a wide 4:1 ratio, and the profile photo covers part of the lower left. A professional banner with your brand, city skyline or work environment makes a profile look complete.
This resizer produces an exact 1584 × 396 pixel banner with Crop to fill: the 4:1 frame is filled completely and you choose which part of your image is kept. Because the banner is so wide, landscape photos and panoramas work best.
How to use the LinkedIn Banner Resizer (1584 × 396)
- Drop your images onto the upload area, click it to choose files, or paste an image with Ctrl+V. This page accepts JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF and BMP files, many at once and up to 80 MB each.
- Keep 1584 × 396 and pick the crop position that keeps your subject in view.
- Place logos and text on the right half or in the centre, since the profile picture overlaps the left side on desktop and the banner is cropped on mobile.
- Check the result with the before/after slider: drag the divider across the preview and read the new dimensions, file size, quality and percentage saved underneath. Any change to the settings re-processes every image automatically.
- Download a single image, or use Download all (ZIP) for the whole batch. Under More options you can also set a DPI value and a file-name pattern with {name}, {w} and {h}.
LinkedIn banner tips
- Keep it calm. A simple background with one clear message reads better than a busy photo.
- Brand consistency. Use the same colours as your website or company page.
- Company pages use a different cover size; check LinkedIn's current guidance before uploading.
- Other banners: X header and Facebook cover resizers.
What makes a good LinkedIn banner
Good banners support your headline: a city skyline for local professionals, a workspace or product shot for founders, a clean branded background with a short tagline for consultants. Avoid putting contact details in the image, because they cannot be clicked and may be hidden on mobile; add them to your profile instead.
Getting the crop right
With an ordinary 3:2 photo, a 4:1 banner keeps only a thin horizontal slice, so pick the slice with the most meaning. Top often works for skylines, Center for desks and products. If nothing fits, Fit with background keeps the whole picture on a coloured band.
LinkedIn compresses uploads, so start with a sharp image and export at quality 85 to 90; text with thin lines stays crisper as PNG.
Private, free and fast
The whole job runs in your browser: images are decoded, resized and re-encoded on your own device, so nothing is uploaded to a server. There is no sign-up, no watermark and no daily limit, and location and camera data (EXIF) are removed from every result.
