About 1584x396 pixels
A 1584x396 image is landscape, with an aspect ratio of 4:1, and holds 0.63 megapixels. At 300 DPI it would print at about 5.3 x 1.3 inches (13.4 x 3.4 cm). As a JPEG it usually lands between 69KB and 138KB, depending on the picture and the quality you choose.
Where 1584x396 is used
The size LinkedIn uses for a personal profile banner, a very wide 4:1 shape.
- Avoid small text near the edges, where profile pictures and buttons can cover it.
- Keep the file light. A banner of a few hundred KB loads fast and is rarely rejected.
- Put the important part in the centre. Apps crop banners differently on phones and desktops.
Crop to fill or fit inside?
Crop to fill always gives exactly 1584x396 by trimming the edges that do not match the shape. Fit inside keeps the whole picture and scales it so neither side exceeds 1584x396, which can leave one side shorter. For a typical 4:3 phone photo, crop to fill removes about 67% of the picture. A 3:2 camera photo loses about 63%, a 16:9 screenshot about 56%, and a square image about 75%.
Quality and format
Check the result before you upload
Open the finished file and check three things: the picture measures 1584x396, the subject is not cut off, and the file is small enough for where you upload it. If a platform sets a size limit, run the result through the online compression tool or choose a limit such as 200KB.
A tip for this size
Your profile picture covers the lower left, so keep text towards the right or centre. Need another size? Try 1500x500, 1200x630, 1280x720, the general image resizer, or browse every size preset.
Frequently asked questions
Why is my image not exactly 1584x396?
You are probably using Fit inside, which never crops. Switch to Crop to fill for exact dimensions.
How big will a 1584x396 file be?
As a JPEG, usually between 69KB and 138KB. Photos with lots of fine detail come out larger, and simple graphics smaller. Lower the quality for a smaller file.
Is 1584x396 the right size for LinkedIn profile banners?
It is a widely used size for LinkedIn profile banners, but platforms and agencies change their rules. Check the current guidelines before you upload.
Will a small photo look blurry at 1584x396?
If the original is smaller than this size, the tool has to enlarge it, and the result can look soft. Start from the largest version you have.
