Facebook Cover Photo Dimensions

Beginning on top, your Cover Picture will certainly be displayed at 851 pixels (px) by 315px. You have the opportunity to adjust the cropping, however can not resize the picture that you submit or choose from your Fan Web page cds.

Facebook Account Photo Size

You can additionally publish a larger photo, ideally in a multiple of 180, such as 360, 540, or 720, as well as Facebook will resize it for you.

The App Pictures, Tab Images, or Thumbnails that used to appear under your Cover Image have actually transferred to the left column. Only 3 show on the page, but when the arrowhead is clicked, every app thumbnail can be seen. It's a good concept to personalize them.

Facebook Follower Web Page Application Favicons
The FB Fan Web page Application used to have tiny 16px favicons. These have actually been removed.

Your Fan Page application can be a single photo (example here). The size of the tab is 810px, and also the maximum elevation for a full-tab image is 1200px. This is the only Facebook picture that I've located to have a documents dimension limitation, and it's 400kb. Pick the suitable compression when conserving your jpeg, It will not post if larger than 400kb.

Facebook Wall Image Size

Photos shared on your wall surface are displayed at 504 pixels wide and approximately 504 pixels high. When sizing your graphics and pictures, make them at least 504 pixels. Facebook is advising 1200 pixels.

Height can differ-- horizontal and also high images will work. I utilized to recommend a high percentage of 4:5, and now these will be minimized to 504 pixels tall with grey bars on the sides (see sample).

Horizontal pictures will fill the 504 pixel width, yet will not have the impact of square. Square looks best on the wall.

Photos you have actually uploaded will appear in the Picture Audience, or lightbox, at the maximum resolution possible, depending on the dimension you posted them and also the audience's screen device. The maximum Facebook image size for upload and also download is 2048 px square. If you submit a bigger picture, Facebook will reduce it so the longest side is 2048 px. Remember that photos can be downloaded and install at the full dimension you have actually submitted, at the very least approximately 2048 px.

For ideal display screen, Facebook recommends that you resize your photos before publishing to among these widths they sustain:

• 720 px
