# Etsy Profile Photo Size: Prepare a 400×400 Image

Prepare a square Etsy profile portrait at the 400×400 minimum. Review headroom, a fitted alternative and the separate under-10-MB upload rule.

## Which dimensions should you use?

Etsy's public profile guide requires a square picture of at least 400×400 pixels and smaller than 10 MB. This preset uses the minimum; it is separate from the 500×500 shop-logo recommendation.

**400 × 400 pixels** · Documented minimum canvas.

This removes 33.3% of the source area. Move the crop to keep faces, products and important text visible.

## Compose this image

Use a portrait that supports the public profile and its introduction.

Keep the face recognizable in the square crop, with enough space above the head.

Retain an original copy before preparing a public sharing version.

## A worked example

A 800×1200 source fills this 400×400 canvas with a crop of about 800×800 source pixels, retaining 66.7% of its area. Filling needs no enlargement. The crop removes portrait height; reposition it to preserve the head and intended shoulders.

## Before you upload

- Confirm that you are changing the public profile picture.
- Inspect hair and shoulders in the downloaded square.
- Review the photo with the public profile biography.

“Keep whole image” is also called fit or contain; it adds white borders instead of trimming the scene. The exporter sets pixel dimensions and placement. It does not enforce platform byte limits or predict every device’s display crop.

## Questions about Etsy Profile Photo

### Can I export a rectangular Etsy profile picture?

The cited guide says to use a square original to avoid distortion. This preset creates the square copy without stretching.

### Is 400×400 enough to make a blurry portrait sharp?

It meets the pixel minimum but says nothing about focus or original facial detail. Inspect the source and the exported file.
