been seeing too many clients with their faces way too small on linkedin lately. looks like a tiny dot when you're scrolling on your phone during lunch. i had to fix this for my plumber client because his head was practically invisible in the feed. if you use a square crop, most of the detail gets lost in the circle overlay. instead of just centering him, try using a slightly larger canvas and then downscaling. it makes the eyes pop more on smaller screens. works best if you keep the focal point slightly above the dead center.
width: 400px;height: 400px;object-fit: cover;padding: 15%;
the padding trick keeps the important stuff from getting clipped by the circle border.
it's a lifesaver i just do it every time i upload.
my eyes literally hurt looking at bad crops
