Quick answer: upload Behance project covers at 808×632 minimum (1400×1050 4:3 recommended), the profile banner at 3200×410, and project images at 1400 px wide. Files are JPG or PNG with a generous 50 MB cap.

How Behance displays projects

Behance is built around long-form project pages rather than individual posts. Each project has a cover that appears in the browse grid at 808×632 (displayed smaller, around 202×158), and the body of the project is a vertical stack of images. Behance recommends body images at 1400 px wide; narrower files look soft on retina screens.

The cover is the only surface most visitors see before deciding to click, so it carries the same weight as a thumbnail anywhere else: one strong image, the project title legible, and the focal point centered because the grid crops to 4:3.

Project structure

A Behance project reads as a visual narrative, and the highest-performing pages follow a loose order: cover, a short intro, the finished work in context, process or detail shots, and a closing image. Because the platform tolerates long pages, there is no penalty for showing the work thoroughly — but the first three images after the cover decide whether anyone scrolls.

The profile banner is a very wide, thin strip (3200×410), so it behaves more like a masthead than a hero image: a flat brand color, a pattern, or a cropped detail works, while a full composition with text gets cropped. The profile picture renders small in the header.

Portfolio as a product surface

For a product team, Behance is the place for the deep case study — the full brand system, the design process, the UI in context. The finished set is a 4:3 cover, 1400-wide body images, and a 3200-wide banner. Neatico generates the cover and banner variants together from one description, so the grid thumbnail and the profile masthead stay consistent.
