A cover image in LinkedIn's exact dimensions, ready in 30 seconds, no sign-up. Nothing ends up under your profile photo, on desktop or on mobile.
The grey circle is your profile photo: LinkedIn places it over the banner. That's why the left side stays empty.
The banner could not be generated. Reload the page and try again.
Each template is a base: you change the background, the accent colour, the typography and the emoji, or drop in your own photo. Here is what they look like with real profiles.
Your profile photo says who you are, your headline says what you do. Your LinkedIn banner, which LinkedIn calls the cover image, is the only place that can say what you're looking for, where, and from when. A recruiter passing by your profile knows it in a second, and so does your network.
LinkedIn recommends a cover image of 1584 x 396 pixels, PNG or JPG, under 8 MB. That is exactly what this maker produces, with no cropping needed.
The trap is the profile photo. On desktop it covers the bottom left of the banner; on mobile it is bigger and reaches higher. Many banners made from a template have their text hidden without the person knowing. Here, all the content sits in the area visible on every device, and the preview shows you the result with the photo.
The target job, the school-company schedule and the start date. That is what a recruiter checks first, and what is missing on almost every apprentice profile. Add the degree you are studying for as a strength.
Duration and period matter as much as the job: “from January 2027” saves ten pointless messages. One or two tools you master are enough as strengths.
Be precise about the job, not the sector: “Web developer” reads better than “versatile profile”. The area and the availability tell the recruiter whether it is worth a message.
Your speciality and your availability, right now or from a given month. The Card or Bold template, in your colours, works as a business card.
Download your image, then open your LinkedIn profile.
Click the pencil icon at the top right of the cover image. On mobile, tap the background photo.
Choose “Change cover photo”, upload the file and save. Nothing to crop: the dimensions are already right.
None. It is the same image, the one shown behind your profile photo. LinkedIn now calls it the “cover image” or “cover photo”, the mobile app still says “background photo”, and everyone says “banner”.
1584 x 396 pixels, a 4:1 ratio. Smaller, the image is stretched and blurry; larger, it is scaled down without loss. The file must be under 8 MB, PNG or JPG.
Because LinkedIn places your profile photo there. On desktop it covers the bottom left, on mobile it is even bigger. The maker keeps that area free so your message stays readable everywhere.
Yes. You compose, you download, that's it. No account, no email, no watermark. Sponta is a spontaneous application service: the banner is our way of helping you get noticed.
Company pages use a different format, 1128 x 191 pixels. This tool is made for personal profiles, where saying what you're looking for makes sense.
One idea, readable in a second: your job title, the contract you want, your area and your availability date. No stock photo, no quote, no text under the profile photo. That is exactly what this maker does.
Yes, with the Photo template: drop an image, it is darkened automatically so the text stays readable. It stays in your browser and is never uploaded.
No. General design tools offer decorative templates, but none handles the area hidden by your profile photo or guides you on what to write. Here, you fill in four fields and the banner is ready in the right format.
With Sponta, you send your spontaneous application to companies in your area without waiting for them to post a job. 1 in 2 hires happens without a public job ad.
