# Screenshot Background Maker Canonical page: https://depost.ai/tools/screenshot-background-maker Put a screenshot, a product shot, or any image on a background that makes it look deliberate, sized for a LinkedIn post, your LinkedIn banner, or an X header. Pick a palette or your own color, choose the size, and download a PNG. The image never leaves your browser. Free to use, with no account needed. ## How to add a background to a screenshot 1. **Add the image.** Drag it onto the page, choose it from your computer, or paste it from the clipboard. Nothing is uploaded. 2. **Pick the size.** A feed post, a slide, your LinkedIn banner, or an X header. 3. **Choose a background.** A palette or your own color, solid or gradient. Light images read best on dark or saturated backgrounds. 4. **Download the PNG.** Exported at 2x, so it stays sharp after the platform compresses it. ## Questions people ask ### How do I add a background to a screenshot? Drop, choose, or paste the screenshot here and it sits on a background: a solid color or a gradient, with room around it, rounded corners, a soft shadow, and an optional window bar for app screenshots. You choose the size, from a feed post to a LinkedIn banner, and download a PNG. The image itself is never cropped, never recompressed, and never scaled past double its size. ### Can I use it for my LinkedIn banner? Yes. The LinkedIn banner size exports at 1584 by 396 pixels, doubled for sharpness, and keeps your image in the right-hand part of the banner, away from the lower-left corner your profile photo covers. The X header size does the same at 1500 by 500. For a banner built around a line of text rather than an image, the LinkedIn banner maker on this site is the better tool. ### What size is a LinkedIn banner? 1584 by 396 pixels for a personal profile, a 4:1 shape, in JPG or PNG up to 8MB. Company pages use 1512 by 256. Your profile photo covers part of the lower-left corner, and phones crop the edges, so anything important belongs in the right-hand two thirds, which is where this tool puts your image. ### Is my image uploaded anywhere? No. Your browser reads the file, draws it onto a canvas, and saves the download. It never touches a server, ours included. Blur anything sensitive before you share it anyway: the background cannot hide what the image shows. ### Which size should I pick? Match the image keeps its own proportions and adds the background around it. Square is the dependable LinkedIn feed shape, portrait 4:5 takes up more of a phone screen, and wide 16:9 suits slides and wide app screenshots. LinkedIn banner and X header are fixed to those platforms’ sizes. The image is never cropped, so a tall image on a wide size gets generous margins. ### What image formats work? PNG, JPG, and WebP in, PNG out. Post sizes cap the long edge at about 2,600 pixels, more than any feed shows. The banner sizes export at exactly twice LinkedIn’s and X’s dimensions, which is what keeps them sharp after the platforms compress them. ### Is there a watermark? No. The download is your image on its background with nothing added, like every tool on this site. ## More free tools - [Every free tool for LinkedIn and X](https://depost.ai/tools) --- Cite as Depost AI (https://depost.ai/tools/screenshot-background-maker).
