Facebook image resizer
Resize one picture into the sizes Facebook asks for: Page cover, profile picture, feed photo, link preview and Story. Your cover is shown in both of the shapes Facebook crops it to, so you can see what a computer cuts off. Free, and the picture never leaves your browser.
JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF or GIF, up to 40 MB. It stays on your device.
Lower means a smaller file. 85 is a good place to stay for photos.
Your image is resized by this page, on your own device. It is never uploaded, and nothing about it is stored or sent anywhere. Privacy policy
Your Facebook sizes will show up here
Choose a picture and your Facebook sizes appear here, with the part of your cover a computer still shows marked on it.
What Facebook does to a cover photo
You upload one 851 × 315 cover. Facebook shows it at 16:9 on a computer and 2.4:1 on a phone, filling the frame and cutting the rest, so it keeps 560 of those 851 pixels across on a computer and 756 on a phone. Tick “Page cover photo” and choose a picture to see both.
How to use it
Choose a picture
A JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF or GIF up to 40 MB. It is opened on your own device and never uploaded.
Tick the sizes you need
The Page cover photo is ticked to start with. Tick as many as you like — they all use the same crop, so you place it once.
Place the crop and download
Drag on the picture, or use the arrow keys, to move the crop. Download one size, or take them all as a zip.
Why a cover photo gets cut twice
- On a phone756 px of your 851
- On a computer560 px of your 851
- Shown nowherethe other 95 px
Facebook takes one 851 × 315 file and shows it full bleed at two shapes, so it keeps the full height and cuts the width twice over. A phone keeps 756 pixels across; a computer keeps only 560. That narrower slice is the part seen on every screen.
Facebook does not publish which part of your file it keeps, so the slices here are drawn from the middle. Treat the size as the fact and the position as a starting point, and drag the cover once it is uploaded to place it exactly.
Keep your name, your logo and anything that has to be read inside that narrow slice. Leave the bottom left alone as well: your profile picture sits over the cover there, by about 40 pixels on a phone.
Facebook no longer publishes the 820 × 312 and 640 × 360 cover figures that most size guides still repeat. They are not used here. The 16:9 and 2.4:1 display shapes, and the 851 × 315 upload, are from its current help centre page for cover photos, read on 5 September 2026.
Every Facebook image size
- Page cover photo851 × 315
- Profile picture320 × 320
- Feed photo1440 × 1800
- Link preview1200 × 630
- Story1440 × 2560
Each frame is that size’s real shape, all drawn to the same height. The lime outline is what the tool marks on your picture: the band a cover still shows, and the middle of a Story that Meta asks you to keep clear of text. A profile picture is cut to a circle.
| What it is for | Size | Shape | Limits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Page cover photo | 851 × 315 | 16:9 on a computer, 2.4:1 on a phone | At least 400 × 150. No published maximum file size, though Facebook says a cover loads fastest as a JPG under 100 KB. |
| Profile picture | 320 × 320 | 1:1 | No published maximum file size. Cropped to a circle, and shown at 176 across on a computer, 196 on a phone, 36 on a feature phone. |
| Feed photo | 1440 × 1800 | 4:5 | At least 600 × 750. JPG or PNG, up to 30 MB — the ads guide's upload ceiling, not a stated limit on an ordinary post. |
| Link preview | 1200 × 630 | 1.91:1 | At least 200 × 200, and 600 × 315 before it shows small. Must be under 8 MB. |
| Story | 1440 × 2560 | 9:16 | At least 500 wide. JPG or PNG, up to 30 MB — again the ads guide's ceiling. Keep text out of the top 14%, the bottom 35% and 6% down each side. |
Where these come from: the cover photo and the profile picture are Facebook’s own, from the help centre it writes for Page owners. The feed photo and the Story are Meta’s, from the ads guide — Facebook publishes no size of its own for an ordinary post, so an advertiser’s figure is the best there is, and the 30 MB is an ad uploader’s ceiling rather than a rule about posting. The link preview is from Meta’s sharing documentation, and its 8 MB is a real limit.
There is no event cover or group cover here. Facebook gives no pixel size for either, and a made-up number would be worse than none. The link preview shape is a sensible stand-in.
Posting the same picture to Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok or Pinterest as well? The social media image resizer does every platform’s sizes in one pass.
Common questions
What size should a Facebook cover photo be?
851 × 315 pixels. That is the file Facebook's help centre asks a Page owner to upload, and it is what this tool exports. Facebook also says a cover loads fastest as an sRGB JPG under 100 kilobytes, which is advice rather than a limit — the size of your file is printed under it here, and the quality slider is how you bring it down.
Why do the edges of my cover photo get cut off?
Because Facebook takes one file and shows it at two shapes. Its help page says the cover displays at 16:9 on a computer and 2.4:1 on a phone, both full bleed, which means the frame is filled and whatever hangs over the edge is cut. Your 851 × 315 file is wider than either frame, so both keep its full height and take a slice of its width: 560 pixels across on a computer, 756 on a phone. The computer is the tighter of the two, so 560 × 315 is the part seen everywhere.
Where should I put my name and logo on a cover photo?
Inside the 560 × 315 band this tool draws on your cover, and away from the bottom left, where Facebook lays your profile picture over the cover — by about 40 pixels on a phone, says the same help page. Facebook does not publish which part of your file it keeps, so the band here is drawn down the middle. Treat its size as the fact and its position as a starting point: move the crop here, and drag the cover again once it is on Facebook, until what matters is inside it.
What size should a Facebook post be?
1440 × 1800 pixels, in the 4:5 shape. Worth knowing where that comes from: Facebook publishes no size of its own for an ordinary photo post, so this is the figure from Meta's ads guide, which is written for advertisers. It is still the right shape to aim at — 4:5 is the tallest a photo runs in the feed, so it fills more of a phone screen than a square does.
Should I save as JPG, PNG or WebP?
JPG for photographs, PNG when there is a logo or text with hard edges. Meta's ads guide names JPG and PNG, so those are the safe choices. WebP gives you a smaller file at the same quality and Facebook accepts it, but if anything downstream chokes on a picture, JPG is the one to fall back to.
What size is a Facebook profile picture?
320 × 320 pixels, says Facebook's help centre, and it must be at least 400 wide and 150 tall to be accepted at all. It is cropped to a circle, and shown at 176 pixels across on a computer and 196 on a phone — so anything near the corners of your square is cut, and small text will not be readable at that size.
What picture does Facebook show when someone shares my website?
The one your page names as its og:image, and Meta's sharing documentation asks for 1200 × 630 pixels, under 8 MB, as close to 1.91:1 as you can get. This tool exports that size. Putting it on your website is a job for whoever edits the site — resizing it here does not change what Facebook reads.
Can I use this for an event cover or a group cover?
Not as its own size. Facebook's help page for adding an event cover photo gives no pixel size at all, and a made-up number would be worse than none. The closest published size is the link preview, 1200 × 630 at 1.91:1, which is a reasonable shape for an event cover too.
Is it free, and does my picture get uploaded?
Free, with no account, no card and no daily limit, and your picture is never uploaded. Your browser opens the file, resizes it on your own device, and hands you the result. Nothing is sent to Soyla or anyone else and nothing is stored, so a photo of your shop, your team or your customers is safe to use. Close the tab and it is gone.
