Your Profile Picture Is the First Thing People See
A great profile picture is square, centered, and looks good even when displayed as a tiny circle. Most platforms (Twitter, Discord, Instagram, TikTok) crop your image into a circle — if your face is off-center, it gets cut off. This guide shows you how to make a perfect square PFP in under 30 seconds.

What makes a good square PFP?
A good square PFP has your face clearly visible and centered. Use a well-lit photo with a simple background. Our tool ensures your face is perfectly centered in the square crop.
Why does my profile picture look cropped?
Most social media platforms display your PFP as a circle, cutting off the corners. Our circle safe zone preview shows you exactly what will be visible, so nothing important gets cut off.
What's the best resolution for a PFP?
We recommend at least 400x400 pixels. Our tool outputs at 800x800 pixels, which is more than enough for all major platforms.
