Pinterest Board Cover Resizer
Board covers make your profile look organised and tell visitors what each board holds. This page resizes your cover image to 1000×1000, centred for Pinterest’s crop. Everything runs in your browser — nothing is uploaded. Need a smaller file instead? Compress or convert.
Drag the preview to choose which part of the image is kept. The same framing is used for every image in the batch.
Getting the Pinterest board cover right
Board covers are the shop window of a Pinterest profile. Square, centred images in a consistent style look the most professional.
Square cover
600×600 minimum, 1000×1000 preferred.
Centre the subject
Different views crop the cover slightly differently.
Matching set
Same style on every board makes a profile look like a brand.
Batch your boards
Resize all covers at once and download a ZIP.
About 160 KB–310 KB as JPG
A typical photo at 1000×1000 saves to roughly 160 KB–310 KB at good quality — well within the upload limit.
You choose the crop
Filling 1000×1000 from a 3:4 phone photo trims about 25% of it. Drag the preview to choose what stays, or tick the fit option to keep everything.

Boards that look organised
Square and centred. Board covers are square, and Pinterest shows them in a few slightly different crops on profiles and in search. Keeping the subject in the centre ensures it is visible in each of them.
A matching set. Covers in the same style — same font, same colour band, a short board name — make a profile look like a brand. Resize all of them together here so they are identical in size.
Covers come from pins. Pinterest picks the cover from the pins on the board. Save your designed square as a pin on that board, then choose it as the cover for full control.

Frequently asked questions
What size is a Pinterest board cover?
A square, at least 600×600 pixels; 1000×1000 is a sharp choice. Keep the subject centred, as Pinterest crops covers slightly differently in different views.
Can I upload a custom image as a board cover?
You choose the cover from the pins on the board, so save your designed square as a pin on that board first, then select it as the cover.
Why does my board cover look cropped?
Pinterest shows covers in slightly different shapes in different views. Keep the subject and text in the centre.
What is the minimum board cover size?
600×600 pixels; 1000×1000 looks sharper.
Are my images uploaded?
No. Resizing happens entirely in your browser. Nothing is transmitted or stored, and you can disconnect from the internet after the page loads and it still works.
