SharePoint Image Sizes
Recommended Image Sizes in Modern SharePoint
Images used within SharePoint can be different sizes and aspect ratios depending on your chosen number of columns and web part layouts.
In most cases, images in modern web parts work best across layouts and devices when they have an aspect ratio of either 1:1 (square), 16:9 or 4:3, depending on the layout.
Images should be in .GIF, .PNG or .JPG format and maintaining good resolution is important for ensuring the best UX.
The trickiest SharePoint images to ‘get right’ in terms of format are the ones you use for page titles – and unfortunately, you’ll find you need a lot of these.
