How to Make Your SmugMug Profile Photo Rounded

Transform your square SmugMug profile photo into a modern circular design using a simple CSS snippet.

SmugMug displays profile photos as square thumbnails by default. A rounded profile photo creates a more modern, polished look that's become standard across social media and professional websites.

Rounded profile photo on SmugMug

CSS code

Add this code to a CSS content block in the Entire Site section:

/* Rounded profile photo */
.sm-page-widget-profile-v2-biophoto {
    border-radius: 50%;
    margin-left: 1rem;
    margin-bottom: 1rem;
}

How it works

  • border-radius: 50% — Transforms the square image into a perfect circle
  • margin-left: 1rem — Adds spacing on the left side
  • margin-bottom: 1rem — Adds spacing below the photo

Customization options

Adjust the spacing

Modify the margin values to fit your layout:

margin-left: 0;      /* Remove left spacing */
margin-bottom: 2rem; /* More space below */

Add a border

Make the profile photo stand out with a colored border:

.sm-page-widget-profile-v2-biophoto {
    border-radius: 50%;
    border: 3px solid #ffffff; /* White border */
    margin-left: 1rem;
    margin-bottom: 1rem;
}

Add a shadow

Create depth with a subtle shadow:

.sm-page-widget-profile-v2-biophoto {
    border-radius: 50%;
    box-shadow: 0 4px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);
    margin-left: 1rem;
    margin-bottom: 1rem;
}

For best results, use a square profile photo where your face or subject is centered. Non-square images may appear cropped unevenly when displayed as a circle.
