What Size Should a Picture Be for Facebook?

Facebook crops anything that does not match the slot it lands in. Meta recommends a square profile picture of at least 320 × 320 pixels, shown as a circle at 176 × 176 on computers and 196 × 196 on phones, and says a cover photo loads fastest as an sRGB JPG of 851 × 315 pixels under 100 KB. Group covers are 1640 × 856 (1.91:1), link images 1200 × 630, and Meta’s ads guide asks for 1440 × 1800 (4:5) feed images and 1440 × 2560 (9:16) story images. Event covers are usually made at 1920 × 1005, and regular posts at 1080 × 1080 or 1080 × 1350.

This Facebook image resizer turns one photo into all of them. Pick a size, drag the photo to frame it, check the cover or story safe area, or fit the whole picture with blurred edges so nothing gets cut. Use it as a picture resizer for Facebook profile photos, a Facebook profile picture cropper, a Facebook cover crop tool, or a Facebook picture resizer for posts, stories, and ads. It runs in your browser, so it is free, needs no sign-up, and never uploads your photo.

How to Resize Photo for Facebook Profile, Cover, and Posts

Resize photos for Facebook profile, cover, and feed slots in four steps.

01

Upload Your Photo

Add a JPG, PNG, or WebP up to 20 MB to resize image to Facebook profile, cover, or post sizes. It opens in your browser and is never uploaded anywhere.

02

Pick a Facebook Size

Choose Profile picture, Cover photo, Group or Event cover, Square or Portrait post, Link, Story, an ad size, or Custom W × H. The profile presets resize picture for Facebook profile picture slots as a ready square.

03

Drag, Zoom, or Fit

Drag the preview to frame faces and zoom in to crop tighter. Turn on the safe-area guide for covers and stories, or choose Fit whole image to keep everything with blurred edges.

04

Download One Size or All

Save a JPG (smallest, best for photos and covers) or a PNG (logos and text). Download All Facebook Sizes saves every preset as its own file.

A Facebook Photo Resizer for Every Slot

Resize Image for Facebook Profile Picture Slots

This Facebook profile picture resizer crops any photo to a square: 320 × 320 is Meta’s recommended size, and 720 × 720 stays sharper when someone opens your photo. Facebook shows the square as a circle, so drag and zoom until the face sits in the middle for a Facebook profile photo crop with nothing important in the corners. It is an image resizer for Facebook profile pictures that saves you from Facebook’s small crop window.

Facebook Cover Crop With a Safe Area

Resize photo to Facebook cover size (851 × 315), then turn on the safe-area guide: the dashed box marks the center that stays visible on computers and phones. On phones the cover is shown at about 2.4:1 and your profile picture overlaps its lower-left corner, so keep faces and text away from the edges.

Make an Image a Perfect Fit on Facebook

Not every photo should be cropped. Fit whole image keeps the entire picture and fills the gaps with a blurred copy, white, or black, so tall portraits, group shots, and posters fit a square post or link image without losing anyone.

How to Crop a Facebook Profile Picture

Use this photo resizer for Facebook profile pictures first, then set the photo on Facebook.

On a Computer

Click your profile picture, then your name, and select the camera icon on your profile picture. Choose Upload photo, adjust the crop in the preview, and save.

In the Facebook App

Open your profile, tap your profile picture, choose to select a new one, pick the photo, position it in the circle, and save.

Start From a Square

Upload the square made here and the circle lands where you framed it. A clean picture resize for Facebook profile photos means little or nothing to fix in Facebook’s own crop window.

Fix a Bad Crop

If Facebook cut off a head or a friend, re-crop the original here (or use Fit whole image) and upload it again as a new profile picture.

Facebook Photo Tips

Small details that keep pictures sharp and uncropped.

JPG for Photos, PNG for Text

Meta suggests PNG for profile pictures and covers with logos or text; JPG keeps photo files small.

Keep Covers Under 100 KB

An 851 × 315 sRGB JPG under 100 KB loads fastest. If yours is larger, shrink it with Reduce Image Size.

Mind the Profile Overlap

On phones the profile picture overlaps the cover by about 40 px and hides part of its left side.

Leave Story Margins

Keep text about 250 px from the top and bottom of a story; for story ads Meta asks for 14% and 35%.

Start Big, Export Small

Upload the original photo. Enlarging a small picture looks soft; the Image Upscaler can add pixels first.

Use sRGB Colors

Phone photos already are. If a design looks dull after upload, export it as sRGB from your editor.

Resize for Other Platforms

The same drag-and-download workflow for other social sizes, plus file tools for the finishing touches.
