Use the avatar preset to create a square profile image for social accounts, team directories, forms, and profiles.
WebP is a strong default for website images because it usually keeps quality high at a smaller file size. JPEG is practical for photo uploads and forms, PNG is better for screenshots or transparent artwork, and AVIF can be useful when the destination supports newer formats.
A 1600 pixel wide export is enough for many full-width web layouts, while square profile photos often need exact dimensions such as 512 by 512. Keeping enlargement disabled prevents small originals from becoming soft or stretched.
Lower quality settings can shrink photos quickly, but logos, text, and interface screenshots often need PNG to keep edges crisp. The best result depends on whether the image is headed to a website, email, form upload, product listing, or profile.
Square avatars usually work best when the face, logo, or main subject is centered with a little breathing room. A 512 by 512 export is a practical default for many profile systems.
Profile sites often crop the image again after upload. Keep the uncropped source file so you can make a wider or tighter version without degrading the same square export repeatedly.
