Photo and signature for BCS applications
BCS applications to the Bangladesh Public Service Commission (PSC) ask for a colour photo of at most 300 × 300 pixels and 100 KB, and a signature of at most 300 × 80 pixels and 60 KB. Make both here.
The photo keeps its pixel size where it can, and quality is lowered only as much as needed. If the limit is very low, the photo is made a little smaller instead of turning blocky.
PNG keeps every pixel exactly, so files are much bigger. Under a low KB limit the photo is made smaller, and at exact pixel sizes it may not fit at all. For photos, JPG is usually the better choice.
Leave width and height empty to keep the photo’s size and only reduce the file size.
The sizes BCS asks for
| File | Size | Max file size |
|---|---|---|
| Colour photo | 300 × 300 px | 100 KB |
| Signature | 300 × 80 px | 60 KB |
- The photo must be a colour photo taken within the last three months, without sunglasses.
- Applications go through the PSC’s Teletalk portal (bpsc.teletalk.com.bd).
These sizes come from news reports of the 50th and 51st BCS circulars. Rules can change between BCS rounds, so check the current circular on bpsc.gov.bd before applying. If it asks for a different size, use “Custom size” above.
For a good photo
- Use a recent, sharp photo.
- Keep the face in the middle of the frame with a little space above the head.
- Follow any rule in your notice about background colour or clothing.
- If you need a white backdrop, turn on “White background”.
For a clean signature
- Sign on white paper with a black pen.
- Photograph it straight on, in good light, without a shadow.
- Let the signature fill most of the frame.
- With “Clean paper” on, grey or shadowed paper turns white.
Common questions
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. Cropping, resizing and compressing all happen inside your browser. The photo never leaves your phone or computer.
Will the file really be under the KB limit?
Yes. The tool finds the best quality that stays under the limit. It counts 1 KB as 1000 bytes, so the file is under the limit whether a portal counts 1000 or 1024.
Is it free?
Yes, completely free. There is no account and no watermark.
Does the file keep the photo’s location data?
No. The new file carries none of the camera’s extra data, such as GPS location.
Does it work on a mobile phone?
Yes. It works in any modern mobile or desktop browser.
