Facebook Timeline Cover Dimensions Updated 2019

Facebook Timeline Cover Dimensions: We often see profile photos as well as cover pictures on Facebook that don't quite in shape. Possibly the phrasing is covered up, or it's the wrong dimensions as well as doesn't all fit into the space offered. It can be tough to presume just what will certainly work and what won't, so right here's a couple of suggestions from Facebook in order to help you choose a cover photo or account image that will fit:


Facebook Timeline Cover Dimensions


Exactly what are the dimensions of my Page's profile image and also cover picture?

Your Page's profile photo:

- Display screens at 160 × 160 pixels on your Page on computers, 140 × 140 pixels on mobile phones and also 50 × 50 pixels on the majority of attribute phones
- Have to go to least 180 × 180 pixels
- Will be chopped to fit a square
- Lies 16 pixels from the left and also 176 pixels from the top of your cover photo on computers
- Lies 24 pixels from the left, 24 pixels from all-time low and also 196 pixels from the top of your cover image on smartphones

Your Page's cover picture:

- Screens at 851 pixels large by 315 pixels tall on your Page on computer systems as well as 640 pixels broad by 360 pixels tall on smartphones
- Does not display on function phones
- Should be at least 399 pixels large and also 150 pixels tall
- Lots fastest as an sRGB JPG documents that's 851 pixels wide, 315 pixels tall and also less than 100 kilobytes
-For profile pictures and also cover images with your logo or text, you may obtain a better result using a PNG documents.

What about the resolution?

Along with this dimension change we've chosen a high resolution referral since we are additionally considering the surge of greater res tools such as Retina Show-- you want your cover pictures to look all crisp as well as clear there too do not you! 1920px x 1080px future proofs you to some extent as well as covers off practically any other device currently on the marketplace.

On resolution Facebook does not aid when it claims "Bear in mind that your cover picture have to be at least 400 pixels wide as well as 150 pixels high". This is just a minimum size and in our experience we locate it way as well grainy and the advice gives no guidance on safe locations for message.

As long as it's not a crazy size you will not be penalised for submitting a great huge high res photo (this used to be the case with Facebook Groups where compression was applied) but no more.

One word of warning, relying on the screen you use to watch (i.e. non high res/retina display), you might discover the image a little fuzzy. We've trying out JPG vs PNG and a variety of sizes from 640x360 all the way to 1640x923. Currently 820x461 typically looks the sharpest on older display screens however we 'd still suggest 1920px x 1080px for ideal future proofing.
