A Cover Photo That Represents You
Correctly sized canvas, no guessing
Opens at 820×312 — the exact Facebook cover size. Looks sharp on desktop and mobile without awkward cropping or manual canvas setup.
Layer background, text, and logo
Branded background, headline or tagline, supporting images, logo — all separate layers. Drag, resize, and rotate each one. Reorder in the layer tree.
Mobile crops the sides to 640px
Desktop shows 820px wide, mobile crops to 640×360. Anything within 90px of either edge disappears on mobile. Keep all key content in the center 640px.
Business pages: one job for the cover
The profile picture handles brand recognition. The cover's job is to say what you do or what's on right now. Logo + one-line value statement + clean background consistently outperforms complex designs.
Common mistakes that ruin a cover
The usual slip-ups: important text near the edges that mobile crops away, a busy photo that fights the profile picture in the lower-left, and low contrast that turns your headline into mush. Upload at exactly 820×312 or larger with the same 2.63:1 ratio so Facebook never re-scales and softens your artwork.
Facebook Cover Sizes
Profile Cover
820 × 312
Standard desktop size. Mobile shows the center 640×360 — keep key content there.
Mobile Safe Zone
640 × 360
Anything outside this area is cropped on mobile. Don't put text near the side edges.
Group Cover
1640 × 856
Facebook Groups use a taller, almost square format. More room for a visual.
Event Cover
1920 × 1080
Full 16:9 widescreen. Events have more room for creative visuals than profile covers.
