Need the best Facebook picture sizes?

Here are all the details you need to size your images and also graphics to look their ideal on your Facebook Follower Web Page. Includes Cover Image, Profile Photo, and Wall Photos.

Facebook Cover Photo Capacities

Starting at the top, your Cover Image will be displayed at 851 pixels (px) by 315px. You have the chance to adjust the cropping, but can not resize the picture that you upload or select from your Follower Web page albums.

To guarantee you'll like the results, dimension in a photo editor before publishing. Beginning with an image that goes to least 851 pixels vast. Increasing the size of a reduced resolution photo can make it look fuzzy or pixelated.

NOTE: Your Page Call, category, and switches have moved inside the Cover Photo since mid-June 2014. Get my theme at the web link listed below so they won't block a vital part of your Cover design.

Facebook Account Photo Size

The Facebook Profile Image is presented on your Fan Web page at 160px square, but must be uploaded a minimum of 180px square. You can likewise upload a larger image, preferably in a multiple of 180, such as 360, 540, or 720, and also Facebook will resize it for you. This may give you much better clarity, as well as will absolutely provide you a larger picture in your Picture Cd!

Facebook Fan Page App Images/ Thumbnails

The Application Images, Tab Images, or Thumbnails that utilized to show up under your Cover Photo have relocated to the left column. Only 3 program on the page, however when the arrowhead is clicked, every application thumbnail can be seen. It's a good idea to tailor them.

The Facebook application thumbnails are still 111px broad by 74px high. Keep them easy-- possibly just kind that reveals a call-to-action.

Facebook Follower Web Page App Favicons
The FB Follower Web page Apps utilized to have small 16px favicons. These have actually been eliminated.

Facebook Fan Web Page Apps

Your Follower Web page application can be a solitary picture (example below). The width of the tab is 810px, and also the maximum elevation for a full-tab picture is 1200px. This is the only Facebook picture that I have actually located to have a file size constraint, and also it's 400kb. Choose the suitable compression when saving your jpeg, It will not publish if larger than 400kb.

Facebook Wall Image Size

Pictures shared on your wall are shown at 504 pixels broad and as much as 504 pixels high. When sizing your graphics as well as pictures, make them at least 504 pixels. Facebook is recommending 1200 pixels.

Elevation can vary-- straight as well as tall pictures will certainly work. I utilized to recommend a tall percentage of 4:5, but now these will certainly be lowered to 504 pixels tall with gray bars on the sides (see example).

Straight pictures will fill the 504 pixel size, yet won't have the influence of square. Square looks finest on the wall.

Facebook Picture Audience Photo Size

Photos you have actually uploaded will appear in the Picture Audience, or lightbox, at the optimum resolution possible, depending on the size you published them and the viewer's display screen tool. The optimum Facebook image dimension for upload and download is 2048 px square. If you publish a bigger image, Facebook will reduce it so the lengthiest side is 2048 px. Bear in mind that pictures can be downloaded and install at the full dimension you have actually published, at the very least as much as 2048 px.

For ideal screen, Facebook recommends that you resize your images before publishing to one of these sizes they support:

• 720 px


• 960 px


• 2048 px

If you upload 2048 px photos, make certain to choose the High Quality option.
