Features

  • Center your face or logo with padding so the circle crop does not clip it.
  • Use one clear subject; detail is lost at Pinterest's small 165px avatar size.
  • Keep the avatar consistent so viewers link your pins to your brand.
  • Upload a clean 165x165 so Pinterest does not upscale and blur a smaller file.

The Pinterest Profile Picture size (165×165px)

Pinterest displays profile pictures at 165x165 pixels in a 1:1 square, shown as a circle. Your avatar appears on your profile, next to your pins, and beside comments, so a clean square at this resolution keeps your brand or face crisp instead of blurry across the platform's discovery-focused surfaces.

Since Pinterest crops the avatar into a circle, keep your face or logo centered with padding so the corners are not clipped. At 165 pixels the image is small, so a single clear subject, a headshot, a bold logo, or one simple icon, reads far better than a busy graphic that dissolves at avatar scale.

Pinterest is heavily used by brands, bloggers, and makers, so a consistent, recognizable avatar helps people connect your pins to your identity as they discover your content. Upload a crisp 165x165 rather than letting Pinterest upscale a smaller file, so the picture stays sharp everywhere it appears alongside your saved and created pins.
