How To Create An Amazing Facebook Cover Photo?

When you visit other people’s Facebook Page, what do you notice first? Its the cover photo right? Your Facebook cover photo is the crown of your Profile page. Facebook cover photo is the first thing that people see / notice on your timeline. It is the largest piece on your timeline where you can show your creativity and make an ever lasting first impression with an epic cover photo. All your cover photos are public. That means anyone who visits your profile will be able to see your cover photo.

Businesses see this visual space differently. For them it is a visual space which is almost a quarter of the screen on most of the desktop browsers. A space where they can display content about company / product. You might have heard the phrase that “a picture speaks a thousand words” and clearly many of the business  brands are exactly doing the same with their Facebook cover photos.

Brands who have yet to discover the advantages of having an amazing Facebook cover photo are missing the opportunity to generate leads, create brand awareness, or promote an event.

So don’t miss the chance to have fun with them and enjoy being creative with your cover photos. Here is a guide to create an amazing Facebook cover photo.

1. Your Facebook cover photos are 851 px wide and 315 px tall. If you upload a photo smaller than above mentioned dimensions, it’ll be automatically be stretched to the ideal size i.e. 851 x 315 px. The image you upload must be at least 399 pixels wide and 150 pixels tall.

2. While you select a photo to upload it as your Facebook cover, note that the bottom left corner will be covered by your profile photo. So, choose the one that doesn’t get spoiled by the profile photo. Make sure your cover photo has room for your name (right next to your profile photo) & two buttons on the bottom right corner.

3. Choose a sharp image to make your cover photo. We recommend you to upload a large photo so that you’ll be able to drag & re-position accordingly.

4. You can also assemble a collage in your imaging software and save it as a single image file, and upload it as your cover photo.

5. If you are willing to put some extra efforts to create an eye-catching cover photo, look for some online tools & photo editing software specific to Facebook cover photos. For e.g.

  • TimelineCoverBanner.com
  • Facebook cover designer 1.0
  • Coverphotoz.com
  • MyFBCovers.com
  • DesignYourTimeline.com

So, go ahead. Create an amazing Facebook cover photo to show your creativity side & enhance your Profile page.

PicBackMan does exactly what it's supposed to. It's quick and efficient. It runs unobtrusively in the background and has done an excellent job of uploading more than 300GB of photos to 2 different services. After having lost a lot of personal memories to a hard drive crash, it's nice to know that my photos are safe in 2 different places.

LOVE this program! Works better than ANY other program out there that I have found to upload thousands of pictures WITH SUB-FOLDERS to SmugMug! Thank you so much for what you do! :) #happycustomer
Pausing Motion testimonialPausingMotionsmugmug
I pointed PicBackMan at a directory structure, and next time I looked - all the photos had uploaded! Pretty cool. I use SmugMug and while I really like it, the process of creating directories in is pretty laborious when you need to make 80+ at a time. This was a breeze. Thank you!
Gavin Whitham testimonialGavin Whithamflickr
PicBackMan was really easy to setup and has been running for 3 days now backing up all my locally saved photos to Flickr. My photos are really valuable to me so it's great to be able to have them easily backed up to a secure location.

Robert testimonialRobertonedrive
I started with the basic plan, went to premium and now on their platinum plan and it's more than worth the price for me. PicBackMan has saved me many tedious hours of effort moving many files between my various cloud and photo site services and my local computers.
Pausing Motion testimonialVladdropbox
I am very satisfied and surprised at the same time with Pic BackMan. The service is very good and useful. I used it to transfer my photos from Dropbox to my Flickr accound. I highly recomment it.
Dave testimonialDavesmugmug
PicBackMan was an answer to many a prayer. How can I get this MASSIVE collection of photos onto a service that cripples uploading? PicBackMan. I uploaded approximately 85,000 photos in less than a month. It would have taken me close to a year to get all of those photos where they needed to go. Nothing short of brilliant.
Dary Merckens testimonialDary Merckensgoogle-drive
I have thousands of family photos and it's always been such a pain to upload them to various cloud services for offline storage. Well not anymore! PicBackMan makes backing everything up a complete breeze. I don't know how I ever lived without it!
Glen Martineau testimonialGlen Martineauflickr
I was poking around the Internet looking for an easy tool to help me consolidate 15 years of my pictures from Google Photos and Flickr etc - this tool was very easy to use and was painless to setup.
