Headers Sized for X
Exact 1500×500, ready to upload
Opens at the correct X header size. Design fits the wide banner and stays sharp — no manual canvas setup or size hunting.
Branded background, tagline, logo
Layer a background, short tagline, and logo. Every element is moveable and resizable. Reorder layers in the tree any time.
Keep content center-right
The profile photo (~135px) overlaps the lower-left on desktop; mobile crops to a tighter slice too. Avoid the lower-left quadrant entirely — anything there gets hidden.
Simple beats clever here
X is text-dense — users are reading posts, not studying profile art. A clean background + tagline + logo outperforms complex layouts. Full-bleed photography is the one treatment that consistently stands out.
Export as PNG for crisp text and logos
X accepts JPG, PNG, and GIF up to 2MB for headers. Export a PNG when your design has text, sharp logo edges, or flat color — it stays crisp with no compression halos. Reach for JPG only on full-bleed photographic backgrounds, where the smaller file size costs you nothing visible.
X / Twitter Header Sizes
Header Image
1500 × 500
The banner at the top of your X profile. 3:1 ratio.
Desktop Safe Area
~1400 × 425
Approximate visible area on desktop after the profile photo overlaps the lower-left corner.
Mobile Crop
~600 × 200
Mobile shows a tighter center strip. Keep your message in the center-right to survive all crops.
Profile Photo Overlap
~135 × 135
A circular photo overlaps the lower-left. Keep any text and logos out of that zone.
How to Make an X Header
Open the header size
In the Social Banners tool, choose the X Header preset (1500 by 500).
Design the background
Pick a solid color, gradient, or preset texture, or place a wide photo as the base layer.
Add branding safely
Add a tagline and logo, keeping them centered or to the right so the profile photo overlap does not cover them.
Export your header
Check a free preview, then export the full-resolution header in high quality and upload it to your profile.

What people use it for
The jobs the editor was built around — and what it does differently on each one.
Colourways you can revisit
Every edit is a layer, not a bake. When the brand shifts, reopen the file and change the colour rather than rebuilding the variant from the original.
Cutouts with awkward edges
AI background removal that keeps hair, foliage and soft shadows instead of stamping a hard outline around them. The output is a transparent PNG, ready to place.
No export, edit, re-import loop
The Framer plugin runs on the canvas you are already working in, so a recolour or a cutout does not mean a round trip through a second application.
Ten options in the time one used to take
Recolour once and step through the alternatives, so a client review can look at the whole range instead of the one version there was time to make.
Brand colours matched exactly
Pick a colour straight off an existing asset and get the hex, rather than eyeballing it against a screenshot and hoping it is close enough.
Free to preview, priced per export
Previewing is unlimited and costs nothing. A credit is spent only when you download a full-resolution file, so exploring an idea is never the expensive part.
