Frequently Asked Questions
What size should my LinkedIn banner be?
LinkedIn displays banners at 1584x396 pixels. Resize to exactly that, then compress to a few hundred kilobytes - oversized banners get mangled by recompression.
Why does my LinkedIn post image look fuzzy?
LinkedIn recompresses large uploads. A pre-optimized image around 200-400KB at 1200 pixels wide survives the feed looking sharp.
Does compression hurt a professional headshot?
Not at the right settings. Headshots compress beautifully - a few hundred kilobytes keeps every detail a recruiter needs, and the preview lets you verify.
