Facebook Cover Page Dimensions 2019
Facebook Cover Page Dimensions
THE GOOD
Facebook is simply keeping up with the times. And also these days many people are looking at Facebook on their phones, which indicates images should be enhanced for mobile. So in the past when you posted your long, slim cover picture, the sides got cut off when individuals took a look at know their mobile app. Currently Facebook customers will certainly see the full image when on their phones. (Simply note that the tops and also bases will certainly be cut off when individuals view on desktop computer!).
The brand-new suitable mobile dimensions just take place to be the same as a lot of various other points we're currently knowledgeable about! Which means that you can still make use of Canva templates, you simply have to go to a different section. The mobile dimensions adhere to a 16:9 proportion, which is the same as a widescreen television! In Canva you can use the YouTube Cover Art layouts, the Presentation (16:9) layouts, or the Desktop Wallpaper templates. So many choices!
Likewise, currently you can design every one of your cover pictures making use of the very same dimensions. Company page, individual account, teams-- they'll all have that 16:9 proportion on mobile with a little removed ahead and also lower for desktop computer.
THE BAD.
If you develop your photos in Canva, it typically takes Canva a few months to change every one of their layouts to the brand-new measurements. Which can be discouraging! (Yet allow's provide some credit rating. There are A LOT of themes in there! It's bound to take a while.) So you're far better off missing the Facebook Cover design template in the meantime. (Make use of the ones I stated over rather.).
Your cover photo will look various on mobile than it does on desktop computer and also various on your phone than it does on your ipad. It's been this way permanently. Yet that does not mean we need to like it. So make certain if you're taking a photo to utilize on your cover picture you leave a little added background space so you can crop it the way you wish to and also no one's head will get remove.
Despite the fact that company web page, personal account, and groups all have the same dimensions on mobile now, they're still somewhat various on desktop computer. Irritating! They're getting closer to being constant, though!
THE UGLY.
Similar to every Facebook change, the rollout can be sluggish. So you could not also see any modifications yet. And then eventually you'll wake up as well as whatever will certainly look unusual. Anticipate some shift time while everyone changes as well as the modifications roll out.
I got up to this quite little headache-- my cover photo for the Hive Facebook team was extremely wacky! The group cover photos appear to be obtaining hit the hardest. However with a little tweak and a dash of redesign, currently it looks wonderful!
THE NEW FACEBOOK COVER IMAGE DIMENSIONS.
Layout every one of your cover pictures (Whether it's for your company web page, your individual account, or a team) to make sure that it's size: elevation proportion is 16:9. 1920 pixels by 1080 pixels is an excellent size. Even though Facebook gives smaller sized pixel numbers, if you publish a 1920 X 1080 photo, it will certainly look great also on the fanciest of retina display screens.
Keep vital information (faces, text, etc) toward the middle of the image. Know that when individuals consider your image on desktop computer, the top and also base will certainly be cut off, so keep that essential stuff in the middle as well as you'll be golden! (For specific numbers: if your picture is 1920 pixels wide, after that the center 731 pixels will certainly be visible on desktop computer.).
