Right here are all the information you require to size your photos as well as graphics to look their best on your Facebook Fan Web Page. Includes Cover Picture, Account Picture, as well as Wall Photos.

Facebook Cover Image Dimensions

Starting at the top, your Cover Picture will be displayed at 851 pixels (px) by 315px. You have the possibility to change the cropping, however can not resize the picture that you submit or select from your Follower Web page cds.

To guarantee you'll like the outcomes, dimension in a picture editor before publishing. Start with an image that goes to least 851 pixels large. Expanding a reduced resolution image can make it look blurry or pixelated.

KEEP IN MIND: Your Page Name, classification, as well as switches have actually moved inside the Cover Photo as of mid-June 2014. Order my layout at the web link below so they won't obstruct an important part of your Cover layout.

Facebook Profile Image Size

The Facebook Account Picture is presented on your Fan Web page at 160px square, however must be posted a minimum of 180px square. You can also publish a bigger image, ideally in a numerous of 180, such as 360, 540, or 720, and also Facebook will certainly resize it for you. This might provide you better quality, and also will certainly offer you a bigger picture in your Image Album!

Facebook Fan Page App Images/ Thumbnails

The Application Photos, Tab Images, or Thumbnails that utilized to show up under your Cover Image have actually relocated to the left column. Just 3 show on the web page, however when the arrowhead is clicked, every app thumbnail can be seen. It's a great idea to customize them.

The Facebook app thumbnails are still 111px wide by 74px high. Maintain them straightforward-- maybe just type that expresses a call-to-action.

Facebook Fan Page Application Favicons
The FB Fan Web page Apps made use of to have small 16px favicons. These have been gotten rid of.

Facebook Follower Web Page Apps

Your Fan Web page app can be a solitary picture (sample right here). The size of the tab is 810px, and also the optimum height for a full-tab image is 1200px. This is the only Facebook image that I've discovered to have a file dimension limitation, and also it's 400kb. Pick the suitable compression when conserving your jpeg, It won't upload if larger than 400kb.

Facebook Wall Picture Size

Pictures shared on your wall are shown at 504 pixels vast as well as approximately 504 pixels high. When sizing your graphics as well as images, make them at the very least 504 pixels. Facebook is suggesting 1200 pixels.

Elevation can vary-- straight and tall pictures will certainly function. I used to suggest a high percentage of 4:5, today these will certainly be lowered to 504 pixels high with gray bars on the sides (see sample).

Horizontal images will fill up the 504 pixel width, yet will not have the impact of square. Square looks ideal on the wall.

Facebook Picture Visitor Photo Size

Images you have actually posted will certainly show up in the Picture Visitor, or lightbox, at the maximum resolution feasible, depending upon the dimension you uploaded them as well as the customer's display gadget. The optimum Facebook image size for upload and download is 2048 px square. If you submit a bigger photo, Facebook will lower it so the longest side is 2048 px. Bear in mind that photos can be downloaded at the full dimension you have actually submitted, a minimum of as much as 2048 px.

For ideal display, Facebook advises that you resize your pictures before publishing to one of these widths they support:

• 720 px


• 960 px


• 2048 px

If you publish 2048 px images, make sure to select the Top quality option.
