Establish your presence
The Pixelcut profile picture maker allows you to utilize one image for all your social media channels. Once you’ve uploaded your photo, you can customize and redesign it individually for each channel. You can also do one design and then download in the appropriate size for each channel, optimizing it to the highest potential for likes, shares, and more on every social platform. Make a photo for Facebook that can translate to TikTok, or Instagram that can work for Discord and Twitter. Regardless of which platforms you use, Pixelcut’s tool will help you create an awesome profile pic.

Customize your profile picture
Forget about your boring, average profile photos. With our tool, you’ll be flashing gorgeous, polished profile pictures on every social media platform. Use the auto focus tool to add depth of field and customize the image’s focal point. Use Magic Eraser to clean up your picture and make it perfect. Adjust for brightness, tint, saturation, contrast, and everything else with sliders that make it easy. And if you're feeling extra creative, use our free Background Remover tool to erase your background and replace it with a pattern or color.

Frequently Asked Questions
The making of a profile picture begins with the photo itself. Make sure you pay attention to lighting - natural is best - and experiment with your angles to find the one that makes you feel sparkly. Once you’ve taken the shot, edit the photo to your liking using a custom photo editor or profile picture maker like Pixelcut’s, applying filters, adding text, and implementing custom designs.
You can make a custom profile picture with Pixelcut’s custom PFP creator, which allows you to edit your image, add design elements like text and stickers, and select from frames and templates that make your photo shine.
If your profile picture is blurry, you may be using an image that is too small. The fix is simple: upload a profile image that has a better resolution or a different aspect ratio. Most profile photos require a square aspect ratio of 1:1. You can use Pixelcut’s tool to crop your photo into a square, then re-upload the image to the platform it is blurry on.
YouTube, like most platforms, requires an aspect ratio of 1:1. They specifically use a template of 800 x 800 pixels. If you create your YouTube profile picture with this size, your image will be clear and legible. Note that even though they recommend uploading a square image, it will be cropped into a circle on the platform.
