Crop your photo to a square, resize it to 600 × 600 pixels and save it as a JPG under 240 KB for the DS-160 form.
The US Department of State asks for a square digital photo between 600 × 600 and 1200 × 1200 pixels, saved as a JPEG of 240 KB or less. The photo must be in color, taken in the last six months, against a plain white or off-white background, with your head filling roughly half of the image. Always confirm the current rules on the official State Department photo page before you submit.
Common reasons are a file over 240 KB, a photo that isn't square, shadows on the background, or glasses. SizeRight fixes size and shape; lighting and pose are up to the photo itself.
Selfies are often rejected because the camera is too close and distorts the face. Ask someone to take the photo from about 1.2 m away.
