I keep my resolution evaluated 72 ppi (it publishes much faster, yet mostly since Facebook doesn't require accessibility to any of my images in high resolution).
Now below's the part when you could get as creative as you like (simply maintain in mind that towards the lower left edge is where your profile image will certainly be, so do not place anything there that you don't desire covered up).
