Pinterest sizes

Pinterest is a vertically driven platform where images are consumed quickly while scrolling. Pins that follow recommended aspect ratios take up more visual space in the feed and are less likely to be cropped or truncated.
While Pinterest supports multiple image formats, using the correct pin dimensions helps preserve layout, improve readability, and ensure designs display consistently across devices.

Recommended vs supported sizes
Standard Pinterest Pins are best designed at 1000 × 1500 pixels, using a 2:3 aspect ratio. This is the most widely supported and commonly used Pin format.
Best practices for feed visibility
Vertical Pins naturally occupy more space in the feed, making them easier to notice while scrolling. Keep titles and key visuals centered and avoid placing text near the top or bottom edges.
Quality and export considerations
Design at the exact dimensions to avoid scaling. Export at high quality to reduce visible compression.

Recommended vs supported sizes
Square Pins use 1000 × 1000 pixels with a 1:1 aspect ratio. While supported, they take up less vertical space than standard Pins.
Best practices for feed visibility
Square Pins work best for minimal designs or repurposed content. Use strong focal points and limit text to maintain readability.
Quality and export considerations
Because square Pins appear smaller in the feed, sharp imagery and high contrast are important.

Recommended vs supported sizes
Long Pins are commonly designed at 1000 × 1800 pixels, creating a taller vertical layout. Pinterest supports this format, but may truncate overly tall Pins in the feed.
Best practices for feed visibility
Keep essential content within the upper portion of the Pin to ensure it remains visible without expanding. Avoid placing critical information too low.
Quality and export considerations
Export at exact dimensions and avoid excessive height to prevent cutoff.

Recommended vs supported sizes
Video Pins perform best at 1080 × 1920 pixels, using a 9:16 aspect ratio optimized for vertical viewing.
Best practices for feed visibility
Design videos so key visuals and text remain centered. Avoid placing important elements near the edges where interface controls may overlap.
Quality and export considerations
Use high-resolution exports and avoid heavy compression to maintain clarity during autoplay.

Recommended vs supported sizes
Pinterest profile pictures should be uploaded at 165 × 165 pixels using a 1:1 aspect ratio. These images are displayed as circles.
Best practices for visibility
Center logos or faces so they remain visible after circular cropping.
Quality and export considerations
Simple designs with clear contrast remain recognizable at small sizes.

Recommended vs supported sizes
Board covers display at 222 × 150 pixels and appear as horizontal rectangles on profile pages.
Best practices for visibility
Use clean imagery and avoid small text, as board covers display at very small sizes.
Quality and export considerations
Design at the exact size to prevent soft edges after resizing.

• Use vertical formats to maximize feed visibility
• Keep important content within safe areas to avoid truncation
• Avoid overly tall Pins that may be cut off
• Design at recommended pixel dimensions
• Export images at the highest available quality

Picsart helps you prepare Pinterest images using exact dimensions and supported aspect ratios, reducing cropping and quality loss.
Use the Photo Editor to set a custom canvas size before designing, ensuring your Pin matches Pinterest’s recommended format from the start.
If you’re working with existing images, the Image Resizer allows you to resize designs to Pinterest-ready dimensions while maintaining proportions.
For fine adjustments, the Image Cropper helps reposition content so important elements stay within visible areas.
Always export images at recommended sizes and high quality to minimize compression.
