Frequently asked questions.
What size is a profile picture?
The size will depend on which platform you’re using. Some profile picture sizes include 170px by 170px for Facebook, 320px by 320px for Instagram, and 400px by 400px for both Twitter (X) and LinkedIn. Use the Resize tool to adjust your design for any platform.
How do I change the background in a photo to use as my profile picture?
Upload your photo, then our intuitive tool will replace the background automatically so you can easily place your subject over new creative backgrounds, images or colors.
What should I set as my profile picture?
You can choose any image as your profile picture, of course, but if you use an image of yourself, choose a high quality photo that frames you in the center. Use our Photoshop-worthy effects to add filters, enhance, or sharpen your profile picture image.
