Talking about alignment, I got obsessed with it and, after a few modifications, managed to get it as close as technically possible.Īs you might have already guessed, the opportunities are endless. However, don’t forget some basic design rules: if you have a light logo, make sure to pick a dark photo for the design so that the logo stands out in the news feed, next to the page name, something like this:Īnd if you’re an advanced Photoshop user or have a designer that can help you out, feel free to get as creative as this:Īnd the very final thing: cover photo optimisation for mobile devices. For cover photo, click to “Change Cover” and “Upload Photo…” and select the newly created image. To upload the new design, go to your Facebook page, click on “Update Profile Picture” and “Upload Photo…”. If you followed the steps correctly, you will now have two files: one profile picture (320x320px) and one cover photo (851x315px). Use “Save As” to save the cover photo as a separate. To decrease the image size go to Image -> Image Size, and enter: Width: 851px, height: 315px. Go to Image -> Crop – you will now be left with the cover photo that’s 1702圆30px in dimensions. Again, hold CTRL (or Command) and click on the “Cover Photo” layer to load the selection. Finally, be sure to use “File -> Save As” to save the profile picture as a separate. Go to Image -> Crop and you’ll be left with a cropped profile picture. Press and hold the CTRL button (or Command on Mac) and click on the shape to load the selection of the profile picture (more precise than just using the crop tool). In the template you will find a layer called Profile Picture. Use the frame as a guideline on how it will appear on your Facebook page and adjust the photo the way you like it. Open the template and add the photo you want to use for the design. png file of the page frame, so you could use that too. NOTE: in order to use the template you will need to use the Adobe Photoshop or another application that supports. This is exactly why the cover photo template I created is twice as wide than recommended by Facebook, 1702px in width, leaving the cropped out profile picture a 320x320px image. This means that if you just used a 851x315px canvas and tried to crop out the profile picture, the size of the resulting photo will be 160x160px only, and Facebook will not allow you to upload it (as I mentioned, it has to be 180x180px, at least) – and that’s a pain, but… However, the profile picture has to be uploaded as at least a 180x180px image that will then be shrunk to 160x160px. The Dimensions Problemīefore anything else, let’s have a look at why it can be difficult to incorporate the profile picture into your cover photo.Īs you might already now, the dimensions of a Facebook cover photo are 851x315px (that is, 851 pixels in width by 315 pixels in height).
