Profile Picture Size Guide

Every social platform has different profile picture requirements. Using the wrong size means your photo gets compressed, cropped, or looks blurry.

Instagram Profile Picture

Instagram displays profile pictures as 110×110 pixels on mobile, but stores them at 320×320. Uploading at 400×400 or higher ensures maximum quality. Instagram crops all profile pictures into a circle.

LinkedIn Profile Photo

LinkedIn recommends 400×400 pixels minimum, up to 7680×4320. Photos are displayed as a square with optional circle crop. Use a professional headshot with a clean background for the best impression.

TikTok Profile Picture

TikTok displays profile pictures at 200×200 pixels in a circle crop. Upload at 200×200 or higher for crisp results. Keep your face centered since the circle crop cuts corners.

YouTube Channel Picture

YouTube recommends 800×800 pixels. The image appears as a circle across YouTube, so ensure your face or logo is well-centered. Used on your channel page, comments, and video cards.

X (Twitter) Profile Picture

X displays profile pictures at 400×400 pixels in a circle. Upload at 400×400 for optimal quality. The image appears next to every post and reply you make.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. All cropping and resizing happens in your browser using the Canvas API. Your photo never leaves your device.
What size should my profile picture be?
It depends on the platform. Instagram: 400×400, LinkedIn: 400×400, TikTok: 200×200, YouTube: 800×800, X/Twitter: 400×400, Facebook: 170×170, Discord: 512×512. Use the platform presets to get the right size automatically.
Should I use circle or square?
Most social platforms (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Facebook) display profile pictures as circles. LinkedIn shows a square. Discord and gaming platforms use squares. The preset buttons automatically select the correct shape.
What's the difference between PNG and JPG download?
PNG supports transparency — circle crops have a transparent background instead of white. JPG is smaller in file size but fills the background with white. Use PNG for circle crops, JPG for square crops.
Will my photo lose quality?
No quality loss from the cropping process. The output is rendered at the exact pixel dimensions specified. If your original photo is smaller than the output size, zooming in may reduce sharpness — start with a high-resolution photo for best results.
Can I use this for AI-generated avatars?
Yes! If you've generated an AI avatar with PixelPanda's Avatar Builder, use this tool to crop it to the perfect size for each social platform.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes, fully responsive. Works on iPhone, Android, iPad, and any device with a modern browser. Create profile pictures directly from your phone.
