Facebook Cover Photo Capacities

Beginning on top, your Cover Picture will be presented at 851 pixels (px) by 315px. You have the possibility to adjust the cropping, yet can not resize the image that you upload or choose from your Follower Page cds.

To guarantee you'll such as the outcomes, size in a picture editor before posting. Start with a picture that's at least 851 pixels vast. Enlarging a reduced resolution image can make it look blurry or pixelated.

KEEP IN MIND: Your Web page Name, group, and also buttons have actually moved inside the Cover Picture since mid-June 2014. Grab my theme at the link below so they won't obstruct an important part of your Cover design.

Facebook Account Photo Dimension

The Facebook Account Image is displayed on your Fan Page at 160px square, however have to be submitted a minimum of 180px square. You can also submit a bigger photo, ideally in a several of 180, such as 360, 540, or 720, as well as Facebook will resize it for you. This may give you much better clarity, and will definitely offer you a bigger image in your Photo Cd!

Facebook Follower Web Page Application Images/ Thumbnails

The App Pictures, Tab Images, or Thumbnails that made use of to show up under your Cover Image have actually transferred to the left column. Just 3 program on the web page, but when the arrowhead is clicked, every application thumbnail can be seen. It's a good suggestion to tailor them.

The Facebook application thumbnails are still 111px large by 74px high. Keep them simple-- perhaps just kind that shares a call-to-action.

Facebook Fan Page App Favicons
The FB Fan Page Application made use of to have tiny 16px favicons. These have actually been removed.

Facebook Follower Web Page Applications

Your Follower Web page application can be a single image (example here). The size of the tab is 810px, and the optimum height for a full-tab picture is 1200px. This is the only Facebook photo that I've found to have a data dimension constraint, and also it's 400kb. Select the proper compression when conserving your jpeg, It will not post if larger than 400kb.

Facebook Wall Image Dimension

Images shared on your wall are presented at 504 pixels large as well as as much as 504 pixels high. When sizing your graphics as well as photos, make them at least 504 pixels. Facebook is recommending 1200 pixels.

Elevation can differ-- straight and also high images will function. I used to recommend a high proportion of 4:5, and now these will certainly be reduced to 504 pixels high with gray bars on the sides (see example).

Straight images will certainly load the 504 pixel width, however will not have the influence of square. Square looks ideal on the wall surface.

Images you've posted will certainly show up in the Picture Viewer, or lightbox, at the maximum resolution feasible, depending upon the dimension you submitted them and the audience's screen device. The maximum Facebook picture size for upload and also download is 2048 px square. If you post a bigger photo, Facebook will certainly lower it so the longest side is 2048 px. Remember that images can be downloaded and install at the full size you have actually posted, a minimum of up to 2048 px.

For optimum screen, Facebook suggests that you resize your pictures before publishing to among these widths they sustain:

  • 720 px

  • 960 px

If you publish 2048 px photos, make sure to pick the Excellent quality choice.
