How to make a LinkedIn banner with your photo
- Write one short line about who you help or what you do. A clear promise works better than a job title alone.
- Choose a calm background. Add a photo or logo as a Round photo on the right, so your profile picture on the left does not collide with it.
- Keep the format on JPG for a light file. Switch to PNG if you want the sharpest possible text.
- Click Download LinkedIn banner. A short video ad plays, then the file downloads.
- On LinkedIn, click your profile photo, choose View profile, click the pencil on the banner, and upload the file.
Design tips for a LinkedIn banner
- Put the message in the middle or right. Your profile photo covers the left side of the lower edge.
- Use one idea only. Recruiters and clients skim, so a single line beats a paragraph.
- Pick calm, professional colors. A dark or soft gradient behind light text usually reads best.
- Check it on your phone after uploading. Mobile crops the banner differently from desktop.
Frequently asked questions
What size is a LinkedIn banner?
For a personal profile, use 1584 × 396 pixels, a 4:1 shape. The file can be up to 8 MB.
Is this the same size for a company page?
No. Company pages use a different cover size, so this tool is meant for personal profiles.
Why is my text hidden behind my profile picture?
Your profile photo sits over the lower-left part of the banner. Use the safe zone guide here and keep text in the center or on the right.
Is there a watermark?
No. The banner you download is clean, and no account is required.
