Quick answers:
A YouTube banner is 2560 x 1440 px. An Instagram post (square) is 1080 x 1080 px. A LinkedIn personal cover is 1584 x 396 px. An X (Twitter) header is 1500 x 500 px. A Facebook cover photo is 851 x 315 px. A TikTok video is 1080 x 1920 px.
Several platforms ask for the same shape, so one image can serve all of them. Make it at the largest size in the row and it scales down cleanly to the rest.

Platforms crop, compress and reshape anything that is the wrong size. A banner gets its edges chopped, a profile picture gets squished into a circle, a logo turns blurry. AI All Social bakes every one of these sizes into the generator, keeps your subject inside the safe zone, and exports at the exact pixel dimensions, so what you upload is what people see.
FAQ
Is there one image size that works on every platform?
No single size fits every surface, but a few shapes cover most of them: an 800 x 800 square for every profile picture, 1080 x 1080 for square posts on Instagram, X, LinkedIn and Threads, 1080 x 1350 for portrait posts on Instagram and Threads, and 1080 x 1920 for Stories, TikTok and Snapchat.
What size should a profile picture be for all social media?
Make it 800 x 800 px. That is the largest profile picture size any major platform asks for (YouTube, TikTok, Pinterest), and it scales down cleanly to the 512, 400, 320 and 256 px sizes the others use. Every one of them shows it as a circle.
Are banner sizes the same across platforms?
No, banners vary the most, from 851 x 315 on Facebook to 4200 x 700 on a LinkedIn company page. X and Bluesky share one size (1500 x 500), and YouTube and Discord server banners are both 16:9.
Which sizes do the most platforms share?
1080 x 1080 (square posts on Instagram, X, LinkedIn and Threads) and 1080 x 1920 (Instagram Stories and Reels, TikTok and Snapchat).
