Facebook Cover Photo

The cover photo is the large banner image at the top of your Facebook Page. It’s displayed at 851px wide by 315px high.

In the new layout, optimal image size for cover photos is 851 x 315 pixels. You can either upload a cropped and resized image or wider image in which case you’ll be given a chance to move the image to choose the crop you’d like displayed. I suggest you to manually crop and resize the image by keeping in the mind the dimensions of profile picture and the gaps, using Photoshop or Lightroom, it gives more attraction to your cover photo.

The Profile Image is the smaller, square at bottom left of the header, overlapping the cover photo. There is no changes to the profile photo in the redesign.

The size of the profile picture is 160×160 pixels but you have to upload an image at least 180x180px. The profile image will display 16 pixels from the left side of your cover photo and 176 pixels from its top.
