LinkedIn Banner Resizer — Free Online

A useful banner can show an environment, a work sample or a restrained piece of brand artwork. Before resizing, identify the part that must remain visible. A centered crop may trim tall subjects or text near the top and bottom. Padding keeps the full source but can introduce empty areas, so compare both options against the appearance you want on the profile.

Allow space around wording and other details that compete with the profile interface. The tool does not simulate the profile photograph or device-specific layout. View the uploaded result at different window widths rather than assuming the entire canvas is always displayed identically. A large amount of small lettering is especially difficult to read in a narrow background strip.

LinkedIn lists the personal banner dimensions in its cover-image guidance. Use LinkedIn Image Resizer for square updates and article artwork instead. If your source contains transparency or a format the destination rejects, prepare an appropriate copy with Image to PNG. This page only creates the file; it does not connect to your account, replace the live banner or claim that a layout will improve recruitment outcomes.

Open one image and check the width and height before processing. Selecting a preset fills both fields; you can replace those values with custom pixel dimensions. The default fit fills the canvas with a centered crop. When the shapes differ, the fit controls let you keep the whole picture with padding instead, or deliberately stretch it. Padding is white for JPEG and can be transparent for PNG or WebP. The aspect lock controls dimension edits; it does not protect an off-center subject from a crop.

The resizer accepts JPG, JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC and AVIF. HEIC needs its browser decoder, downloaded when first required; AVIF support depends on the browser. JPEG, PNG and WebP retain their format, while HEIC is exported as JPEG and AVIF as PNG. If the destination needs another format, use Image to JPG or the corresponding converter. A correct filename extension alone does not mean that a file has been converted. This page resizes a still image, not a video or an animated sequence.

Review the downloaded copy at its intended display size as well as at full resolution. Enlarging a small source creates more pixels but cannot restore missing detail. Resizing sets pixel dimensions, not a guaranteed maximum in KB; Reduce Image Size handles a file budget afterward. Keep the original for another attempt, since repeatedly saving a JPEG can accumulate visible damage. The tool processes files locally without signup and does not publish to another service. On mobile, keep the tab open until the result is ready, then confirm that the saved file is the newly generated copy.
