A picture paints a thousand words: Profile photos arrive at LinkedIn

September 27th, 2007

LinkedIn, the business networking site, will tomorrow for the first time allow its members to upload their photographs to their profiles.

LinkedIn have announced that you can opt to have privacy of the image, and thus restrict its visibility to your connections, your network, or everyone, and also choose not to see others’ photos in a similar pattern. In addition there is also a cropping and centring tool to be made available to cut down large images to the ‘head and shoulders’ suitable for a profile photo.
