Add a ring and a short line to your photo, so people know what you’re up to at a glance.
Add your photo to download it framed.
Your profile photo shows up everywhere on LinkedIn: next to every post, every comment, every message. It’s the one thing people see more than your name. A frame with a short line on it, like “Hiring” or “Speaking at…”, tells everyone what you’re up to before they even open your profile.
LinkedIn only offers a couple of built-in frames. This free LinkedIn profile picture frame maker lets you pick your own colour and your own words. Add your photo, line it up, choose a frame and download a PNG. Your photo stays on your device.
Your photo is about 48 pixels wide next to a post and smaller in comments. Two words is plenty. “Hiring” works. “Looking for senior engineers in Pune” doesn’t. Nobody will read it.
Tip: Check the comment-size preview. If you can’t read the text there, shorten it.
Face the camera, good light, your face filling most of the circle. A plain background helps the ring stand out. LinkedIn recommends at least 400 × 400 pixels, and this tool downloads at 800 × 800, so it stays sharp.
Take the frame off when it’s no longer true. An old “Hiring” ring makes people think the job is still open.
Say what you want people to do or know. “Hiring” if you’re building a team. “Open to work” if you’re looking. “Speaking at” plus the event name before a conference. “Building in public” if you share your progress. “Open to collaborate” if you want partners or podcast invites.
Or skip the text and use just a ring. A ring in one colour you also use in your banner and post images makes you easy to spot in a busy feed.
Whatever you pick, change it when it stops being true.
The photo sits right on top of your banner, so make them work together. The free LinkedIn banner maker shows exactly where your photo covers it. Then make your first post’s image in the LinkedIn post image maker in the same colours.
Add your photo here, choose a ring and a line of text, and download the PNG. Then on LinkedIn, click your profile photo, choose to change it, and upload the new image.
No. LinkedIn’s own frames are added inside LinkedIn and also change settings like who sees you’re open to work. This tool makes your own design as an image. If you want recruiters to find you through LinkedIn’s settings, turn that on in LinkedIn too.
LinkedIn recommends at least 400 × 400 pixels. This tool downloads an 800 × 800 PNG, which stays sharp on every screen.
No. Your photo is read and drawn in your browser. It never leaves your device and isn’t saved anywhere.
No. Profile frames download without any Wiral mark, and there’s no daily limit.
Wiral turns a thought, a voice note or a link into three posts that sound like you, with images and carousels built in. You pick one, it goes in your queue.
