Who this is for
Designers and creators who export images at the wrong size and discover it after upload.
The problem this solves
Image specs change quietly. The 2024 specs you bookmarked are wrong. The reference is updated quarterly with current dimensions per platform per surface (profile pic, header, feed post, story, ad).
Social media image specifications change approximately 1-2× per year per platform — using outdated dimensions causes image cropping that reduces engagement by 15-30% per post.

Frequently asked
What's the Instagram feed post size?
1080×1080 (1:1 square) or 1080×1350 (4:5 portrait). Portrait gets more feed real estate but square works for grid aesthetics.
What aspect ratio does TikTok use?
9:16 vertical (1080×1920). Anything else gets letterboxed or cropped.
What's the LinkedIn cover image size?
1584×396 (4:1). Profile picture: 400×400 (1:1). Both updated in late 2024.
How often does Pinterest pin size change?
Annually. Current: 1000×1500 (2:3 portrait). Square pins (1:1) work but get less reach.
Should I make custom images per platform?
Yes for hero/cover assets. For feed posts: design at 1080×1350 (Instagram-optimal) and crop down to other platforms. Saves design time without hurting any single platform.
