Facebook crops or compresses images that don’t match its recommended sizes. Pick a preset below and PhotoTools resizes and crops your image to the exact dimensions, so it looks sharp and complete. Facebook link previews and shared images look best at 1200 × 630.
- Use 1200 × 630 for posts and link images, 851 × 315 for the page cover and 1080 × 1920 for Stories.
- Upload JPG under 1 MB for photos, or PNG for images with text and logos.
