This may give you better clarity, and will definitely offer you a bigger image in your Picture Album!

Facebook Follower Page App Images/ Thumbnails

The Application Pictures, Tab Images, or Thumbnails that made use of to show up under your Cover Photo have transferred to the left column. Just 3 show on the web page, but when the arrowhead is clicked, every application thumbnail can be seen. It's a great suggestion to customize them.

The Facebook app thumbnails are still 111px vast by 74px high. Maintain them basic-- perhaps just kind that expresses a call-to-action.

Facebook Fan Web Page Application Favicons
The FB Follower Web page Apps utilized to have small 16px favicons. These have been gotten rid of.

Facebook Follower Page Apps

Your Fan Page app can be a solitary photo (sample right here). The size of the tab is 810px, and also the optimum elevation for a full-tab image is 1200px. This is the only Facebook picture that I have actually discovered to have a documents size limitation, and also it's 400kb. Pick the proper compression when conserving your jpeg, It won't post if larger than 400kb.

Facebook Wall Surface Photo Size

Photos shared on your wall are displayed at 504 pixels broad as well as as much as 504 pixels high. When sizing your graphics and also images, make them at least 504 pixels. Facebook is recommending 1200 pixels.

Elevation can vary-- horizontal and also tall photos will function. I made use of to advise a tall proportion of 4:5, and now these will be lowered to 504 pixels high with grey bars on the sides (see example).

Horizontal pictures will fill up the 504 pixel width, yet won't have the influence of square. Square looks finest on the wall.

Facebook Photo Viewer Photo Size

Images you have actually posted will certainly appear in the Photo Viewer, or lightbox, at the optimum resolution feasible, depending on the size you uploaded them as well as the visitor's screen gadget. The optimum Facebook picture size for upload as well as download is 2048 px square. If you publish a larger picture, Facebook will minimize it so the longest side is 2048 px. Keep in mind that photos can be downloaded and install at the complete dimension you have actually published, at the very least approximately 2048 px.

For optimum display, Facebook suggests that you resize your pictures before uploading to one of these sizes they support:

• 720 px


• 960 px


• 2048 px

If you submit 2048 px pictures, make certain to pick the Premium quality choice.
