Choose a header layout
Your header layout sets how your profile image and title appear on your Linktree:

- Hero: A larger, edge-to-edge profile image with a larger title below it.
- Banner: A small, circular profile image in front of an edge-to-edge banner that fades into your wallpaper.
- Cutout: A larger profile image with its background removed, in front of an extra large title.
- Shape: A larger profile image inside a decorative shape, with an extra large title above it.
Hero, Banner, Cutout, and Shape are available on Pro and Premium plans.

Use a video
Upload a video as your profile image, or choose from over 500,000 royalty-free videos from Coverr. Videos must be under 50 MB, and they loop continuously, so they work well for subtle motion or eye-catching visuals.
