Your profile cover is the large image at the top of your Pinterest profile, and it is the first thing people see when they tap your name from a pin. A clear banner tells them in a second who you are and what they will find on your boards, which makes a follow more likely.
This maker builds a 1600 × 900 cover in a 16:9 ratio with a photo strip of up to four images, one full photo or a plain color, and places your brand name and tagline on a card in the middle. A dashed guide on the preview shows the center area to keep text inside, because the edges can be cut off on some screens. Bulk mode makes one cover per row of a CSV or Excel file, handy for agencies and multiple brands.
Pinterest profile cover size
Pinterest asks for a cover image in a 16:9 landscape ratio, and its help pages give 800 × 450 pixels as the minimum. This maker exports 1600 × 900, which is exactly 16:9 at twice that minimum, so it stays sharp on large and high resolution screens. Pinterest may change how covers are cropped on different apps, so check the help center for the latest guidance.
Because the visible area can vary between phones, tablets and desktop browsers, treat the outer edges as decoration. Keep your name, tagline and anything people must read inside the middle of the image, which is what the dashed guide marks. For other image sizes, see the pin size guide.
What to put on a profile banner
Show the kind of content people will find on your boards. A food blogger can use four dishes, a shop can show four products, a designer can show four finished projects. Keep colors consistent with your pins so the profile feels like one brand.
Your brand name and a tagline of under ten words are enough. Skip long lists, prices or dates that go out of date. To pull matching colors from your best photos, use the pin color palette extractor, and for board images try the board cover maker.
