What concerning the resolution?

In addition to this dimension modification we've gone with a high resolution referral because we are additionally considering the increase of greater res gadgets such as Retina Display-- you desire your cover images to look all crisp and also clear there also do not you! 1920px x 1080px future proofs you somewhat and also covers off practically other device currently on the market.

On resolution Facebook does not aid when it claims "Remember that your cover image should be at least 400 pixels large and also 150 pixels tall". This is just a minimal size as well as in our experience we discover it way too grainy and also the suggestions offers no guidance on secure areas for message.

As long as it's not an insane dimension you won't be penalised for posting a great large high res image (this used to be the case with Facebook Teams where compression was used) yet no more.

One word of warning, depending on the display you make use of to see (i.e. non high res/retina display screen), you could discover the photo a little fuzzy. We've trying out JPG vs PNG and a variety of sizes from 640x360 all the way to 1640x923. Now 820x461 often looks the sharpest on older displays however we 'd still recommend 1920px x 1080px for ideal future proofing.
