How it works
01
Pick a subject
A headshot, a product, a logo, or your mascot. Any subject that would benefit from a clean silhouette.
02
Drop it above
The tool returns a transparent PNG.
03
Composite at 820 by 312
That is the desktop cover photo size. Mobile crops to 640 by 360, so keep the important parts in the centre 640 pixels.
Things that help
—Facebook overlays the profile picture on the bottom left of the cover. Leave the left 200 pixels empty or use them for a soft gradient.
—Use your brand colours in the gradient. Solid colours read as flat; gradients read as designed.
—Test the result on both desktop and mobile preview before saving.
—Do not put text in the cutout itself — Facebook crops differently per device.
Common questions
Does Facebook accept transparent PNGs?
Facebook flattens covers to JPEG internally. Composite over a background first — this is a compositing tool, not a transparency-delivery tool.
What resolution should I use?
820 by 312 for desktop. Export at 2x (1640 by 624) for retina displays.
Can I use this for a company page?
Yes. Same dimensions. Company covers crop the same way.
