# TikTok profile picture

Make your TikTok profile picture at least 1080 x 1080 pixels. TikTok crops it to a small circle, and profiles have no cover image.

Platform: TikTok. Ratio: 1:1. Size: 1080 x 1080 pixels. These are Avola Media's own recommendations, not platform specifications.

## Specification

| Item | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Recommended | At least 1080 x 1080 pixels |
| Minimum | 200 x 200 pixels |
| Shown as | A small circle |
| File size | Not published |

## Notes

- The picture shows small, so keep it simple.
- Don't draw a circle into the image yourself. If you use a background color, fill the whole image with it and let the platform crop it.

## Exact areas

All positions are in pixels from the top left corner of the 1080 x 1080 pixel frame. A picture that overlaps an edge can have its centre outside the frame.

- Visible area: a circle, centre x 540, y 540, radius 540 pixels. Everything outside it is cropped away.
