A new Facebook Timeline requires a new Facebook format sheet with all the new dimensions in one place. What is the maximum dimension for the new profile picture, or for an image in a post? Below is a handy overview of all the dimensions you need to take into account with the new Facebook Timeline.
An important thing to know about the new Facebook Timeline is that you can move images. You can move an image that is larger than the maximum size to a more ideal position. However, it is not possible to reduce or enlarge this image, so if it is too large, not everything will be visible. The entire Facebook Sizes & Dimensions Sheet can be found here .
180 pixels by 180 pixels, but the profile brother cell phone list picture on Facebook is shown in a size of 125 pixels by 125 pixels. If you have creative ideas to make your profile picture flow into the Timeline Cover, keep that in mind. It is best to make the image at 125 pixels by 125 pixels and then stretch it to 180 pixels by 180 pixels, so that Facebook can later reduce it to 125 pixels by 125 pixels. You will lose some quality, but it will give the desired result.
Facebook posts
The maximum visible image for a post is 403 pixels by 403 pixels. For a larger image (for example for the old posts) you have the possibility to move it. You can then move it to a better position, but enlarging or reducing it is not possible.
