Facebook Wall Surface Image Dimension

Images shared on your wall surface are presented at 504 pixels large and also up to 504 pixels high. When sizing your graphics and photos, make them at the very least 504 pixels. Facebook is recommending 1200 pixels.

Height can differ-- straight and high images will work. I utilized to advise a tall proportion of 4:5, but now these will be minimized to 504 pixels tall with gray bars on the sides (see example).

Straight images will fill up the 504 pixel size, yet will not have the impact of square. Square looks best on the wall.

The optimum Facebook picture dimension for upload and download is 2048 px square. If you post a larger image, Facebook will certainly minimize it so the longest side is 2048 px.
