LinkedIn Image Sizes (2026): Posts, Banners, Company Page and Article Covers

LinkedIn image sizes for 2026: post images at 1200×627 (landscape), 1080×1080 (square) or 1080×1350 (portrait); personal profile banner 1584×396; profile photo 400×400; company page logo 400×400; company cover about 6:1 (LinkedIn currently lists 1512×256); article and newsletter covers 1920×1080. Page images must be JPG or PNG, up to 3 MB.

LinkedIn is unusual because people and companies get different layouts, and LinkedIn has changed the company cover size more than once, so guides disagree. This guide goes through every image a seller or small business needs on LinkedIn, notes where the numbers conflict, and gives a safe size for each. It also covers how images crop on mobile and how to resize photos for free.

What are the LinkedIn image sizes for 2026?

Here is every common LinkedIn image size in one place. Where LinkedIn's help center gives a number, it's used; otherwise the size is the one most widely tested.

LinkedIn's page, profile and post image sizes were checked in October 2026. Marketplaces change their rules, so confirm the current requirements in your seller dashboard before you upload a large batch.

The company cover is where sources disagree most. LinkedIn's Page image help currently lists 1512×256; many guides still say 1128×191, and an earlier version of the same help page said 4200×700. All three are close to 6:1, so a 6:1 image with text in the center works with any of them. Use a larger 6:1 file (for example 3024×512) if you want extra sharpness, as long as it stays under 3 MB.

What size should LinkedIn post images be?

Use 1080×1350 (4:5) for the biggest presence in the mobile feed, 1080×1080 for square posts and multi-image posts, and 1200×627 for landscape images and link previews. Most LinkedIn browsing happens on phones, where taller images take up more of the screen.

• Single image: any of the three shapes. Portrait wins on mobile; landscape looks tidier on desktop.
• Multiple images: you can add up to 20 images to one post. The preview shows a few as tiles, cropped toward the center, so keep subjects centered and use one shape for all of them.
• Link posts: LinkedIn pulls the image from the page's og:image tag. Supply 1200×627; LinkedIn's help says images narrower than 200 px appear as a small thumbnail instead.
• Formats: JPG for photos, PNG for graphics with text. Keep files under about 5 MB for fast uploads.

Document posts (PDF carousels)

Swipeable "carousel" posts on LinkedIn are actually PDF documents. Design each page at 1080×1350 or 1080×1080, export as a PDF, then use Add a document when creating a post. Commonly cited limits are 100 MB and 300 pages, but 6 to 12 pages is plenty. Most design apps export a PDF at your slide size. If you only have images, our free image to PDF tool combines them into one PDF in your browser, one photo per page, though its pages are A4 or Letter shaped rather than 4:5. LinkedIn's paid carousel ads are a different format with their own specs.

What size is the LinkedIn banner for a personal profile?

The personal profile background is 1584×396 pixels (4:1), JPG or PNG, up to 8 MB. Your profile photo sits over the lower-left area, and the banner crops differently on desktop and mobile, with mobile showing less of the sides. Put text and logos in the right half or center, and leave the lower-left plain.

For a founder or seller, a good banner is simple: your product range or your best product in a scene, plus one line saying what you sell. A cluttered collage gets lost at banner size; if you do want several products, combine two or three in our free product collage maker with generous spacing, then pad the result to 1584×396 with a matching background color.

What size is the LinkedIn company page cover and logo?

Use a 400×400 logo and a 6:1 cover image, both JPG or PNG under 3 MB. LinkedIn notes that covers may be trimmed horizontally or vertically depending on the screen, and recommends keeping key details away from the edges, especially the lower-right corner. Keep text short and centered.

1. Logo: a 400×400 square with the mark centered. LinkedIn shows logos on both light and dark backgrounds, and a transparent logo gets a white background, so test it both ways.
2. Cover: a 6:1 image, such as a wide product scene or a plain brand color with your tagline in the middle third.
3. Check on a phone after uploading. Mobile shows a different crop than desktop.

If your logo has a background you need to remove first, see our guide on making a logo background transparent, or use the AI background remover.

What size is a LinkedIn article or newsletter cover image?

LinkedIn's newsletter guidance recommends 1920×1080 pixels (16:9) for article cover images, and a 300×300 logo for the newsletter itself. Some guides list 1200×644 instead; that is close to the 1.91:1 crop shown when an article is shared in the feed. A 1920×1080 image with the title area and subject in the middle covers both.

How to resize images for LinkedIn for free

• Crop to a ratio: our free image cropper locks to 1:1, 4:5 or 16:9 and shows the exact pixel size as you drag.
• Exact sizes such as 1584×396 or 1512×256: the free marketplace image resizer takes any custom width and height and pads with a color or crops to fill.
• Graphics with text: a design template sized for the slot, exported as PNG.

For a wider look at shapes, see our aspect ratio guide, and for the sizes your own store needs, the website image sizes guide.

Making LinkedIn images from product photos with AiArter

• Landscape and banner sizes (8 credits each). The Facebook/Google ad size (1200×628) fits LinkedIn's landscape post and link slot, the website banner (1920×1080) fits article covers, and the Instagram post size (1080×1350) fits portrait posts. AI fills new space instead of cropping.
• Clean product shots (4 credits). White, light grey or brand-color backgrounds so product posts look consistent with your company page.
• Scenes (8 credits). Your product, kept as photographed, in a generated setting such as Studio or Dark luxury for banners and covers.
• Text graphics: design templates for launch and announcement posts.

For a 1584×396 or 6:1 banner, start from one of those outputs and crop or pad it to the exact size with the free tools above. AiArter doesn't post to LinkedIn; you upload the files yourself. The Facebook cover photo size guide covers the same steps for Facebook.
