Resize Image for a Facebook Cover (851×315)
Get the perfect 851×315 image for a Facebook cover photo in one click.
Facebook displays cover photos at 851 × 315 pixels on computers, but phones show a taller, narrower slice of the same image.
That means one picture has to work in two shapes. Keep the subject in the centre, avoid text near the left and right edges, and leave the bottom left clear for your profile picture on desktop.
Uploading at a higher resolution with the same ratio keeps it sharp on high-density screens; this preset gives the exact display size for a crisp result without re-scaling.
How to use it
- Drop in your image.
- Crop to fill the cover shape.
- Download it and set it as your cover.
Frequently asked questions
Why is my cover cropped differently on my phone?
Mobile shows about 640 × 360 from the centre of the cover, cutting the sides. That’s why centred subjects work best.
Should I use JPG or PNG?
JPG for photos. PNG gives noticeably cleaner results if the cover contains a logo or text, which Facebook otherwise tends to blur.
Does this work for Facebook event and group covers?
Those use different sizes (group covers are wider). This preset is for profile and page covers.
