The Complete Guide to Facebook Image Sizes
Facebook displays images differently depending on where they appear. A photo that looks great in a post may be cropped awkwardly as a cover photo or OG preview. Using the exact dimensions Facebook recommends ensures your content displays perfectly across all placements.
Feed Post Images
The recommended size for Facebook feed posts is 1200×630 pixels (1.91:1 aspect ratio). This is the same ratio used for link previews and Open Graph images. Facebook will downscale larger images but may crop images with different aspect ratios, so uploading at the exact size gives you full control.
Cover Photos & Profile Pictures
Facebook cover photos display at 820312 pixels on desktop and 640360 on mobile. Upload at 820312 for the best balance. Profile pictures display as circles and should be 180180 pixels. Facebook will crop square images into circles, so keep important content centred.
