Create A Facebook Collage: Facebook has recently made some adjustments to the guidelines concerning Timeline Cover Photos for your follower pages! The biggest one is that you could not have message covering greater than 20% of your cover photo (this is in addition to the other guidelines Facebook has concerning cover pictures for fan web pages). So, currently feels like a great time to learn how to make your personal custom-made cover image!.
I will certainly be making mine in Photoshop CS5, however, for you Components individuals, Stephanie (Le Belle Photography) just recently did an excellent video clip tutorial on making your personal timeline cover image! Click here to check it out!
Create A Facebook Collage.
To start, produce a brand-new document, name it "facebook timeline cover" (by doing this you could conserve the.psd and it's all prepared to make another one later on!), and also size it at 851 px wide by 315 px high. I maintain my resolution evaluated 72 ppi (it publishes faster, yet mainly since Facebook doesn't require accessibility to any one of my pictures in high resolution).
Now here's the part when you could get as innovative as you like (simply remember that in the direction of the lower left edge is where your account picture will be, so do not place anything there that you don't want covered up). I'll show you a straightforward one, and afterwards I'll reveal you ways to use clipping masks to earn it a lot more like a collection.
The first one is just to drag a picture onto your brand-new layout and also relocate to your preferred position as well as area it. Then you can add your logo design and be done.
If you want to get more creative your could utilize clipping masks to develop a collection and also add even more pictures! (For my background, I utilized an image that I lately took of a sunrise, as well as scaled it to ensure that only the night colors were showing).
Save your image as a JPG data and upload to your Facebook web page!
If you're having difficulty understanding where to begin, you can download the design template I simply made by clicking here! And also as always, if you have any kind of questions, feel complimentary to comment below, or send me an e-mail at beckie at beckiegkengle dot com.
