LinkedIn banner size

LinkedIn recommends 1584 × 396 pixels for a personal profile background: a very wide 4:1 strip. Most photos need cropping to fit, so click the photo to choose what stays in frame.

Your profile photo covers part of the lower left of the banner, and the preview shows where. Keep text and logos towards the middle or right.

Banners are saved as JPG at 90% quality.
