Open a guide for exact pixels, safe zones, and an in-browser crop for that surface.

Portfolio billboards vs profile marks

Project covers lean on a practical 1920×1080 (16:9) stamp—optional 1400×1050 (~4:3) when the work needs more vertical room. Hire managers skim covers as tiny grid tiles.

Avatars want 512×512 for a clear face or studio mark beside projects. Do not stretch a cover into the avatar slot.

Sizes are practical community targets, not a fake official mandate. Re-crop Instagram or LinkedIn starters, then preview live.
