Resize a Picture to 1584x396 for Your LinkedIn Banner

1584 x 396 pixels is the size commonly recommended for the background photo, or banner, at the top of a personal LinkedIn profile. The shape is 4:1, four times as wide as it is tall, one of the longest and thinnest image slots on any social profile. A picture made at exactly this size shows the way you framed it rather than the way an automatic crop guessed.

Open a picture, or several to try out. The size boxes already hold 1584 x 396, the preview shows the long banner, and Download saves an image exactly 1584 pixels wide and 396 high, with -1584x396 added to the name (holiday.jpg becomes holiday-1584x396.jpg).

Keeping the Right Slice

At 4:1, the banner takes only a slim band out of a normal photo: from a 4:3 photo it keeps a third of the height, from a 3:2 photo about 38 percent, and from an upright phone photo a very thin slice. Which band you keep is the whole decision, and the Mode switch sets how it is made:

Crop to fill, the default, scales the photo to the full banner width and cuts away everything above and below the band. The preview shows the whole photo with the kept band lit and the rest dimmed; drag it up or down, or tap where it should sit, to keep a city skyline, the line of a desk, a stage or a stretch of landscape. Wide scenes with a strong horizontal line make the best LinkedIn banners, because they survive such a thin crop. Each thumbnail in a batch keeps its own position.

Fit inside keeps the entire picture and fills the space at the sides with white, black, a colour from the picker, or transparency. Use it for a company logo, a slogan graphic or a square image that must appear whole; on a background in your brand colour it reads as a deliberate design. A JPG with a transparent background is saved as PNG.

Stretch makes the picture 1584 x 396 by changing its proportions. An ordinary photo would be widened several times over, so keep it for panoramas that are close to 4:1 already.

What Sits on Top of the Banner

Your profile photo is placed over part of the banner, toward the left on a computer, and the layout on phones is different again, so the banner can be shown trimmed or partly covered. Put text and the main subject in the middle and right side of the band, away from the lower left, and it stays readable on both.

Format, Batch and File Names

A JPG stays a JPG, a PNG a PNG, a WebP a WebP, unless you choose another format in the menu beside Download; the Quality slider sets JPG and WebP quality. The + tile after the thumbnails adds more images, and with two or more, Download as gives a ZIP, separate images (the share sheet on a phone) or, in Chrome and Edge on a computer, a folder you pick. Lanczos resampling keeps edges and small text clean at this narrow height, phone photos are turned upright first, and a file already 1584 x 396 in the asked format is returned untouched.

Need a different size? Type it into the boxes, or open 1500x500 for an X header, 1200x630 for a link preview image, 400x400 for a profile picture, or 1920x1080 for a Full HD frame. To resize by percentage or keep each photo's shape, use Batch Resize.

Frequently Asked Questions

What aspect ratio is 1584x396?

4:1. Divide both sides by 396 and you get 4 and 1: the banner is exactly four times as wide as it is tall.

Why does my LinkedIn banner look cut off?

A normal photo is far taller than 4:1, so most of it cannot fit. Resize it here first and drag the lit band to the part you want, or use Fit inside to keep the whole picture with coloured sides.

Is this size for a company page too?

1584 x 396 is the size commonly recommended for personal profiles. Company pages and other LinkedIn spaces may recommend a different cover size; if yours does, type it into the width and height boxes.

Does my picture get uploaded?

No. The resize happens in your browser on your own device. Your picture only reaches LinkedIn when you add it to your profile yourself.
