Tips and Tricks for using Images in Social Media
Do not throw caution to the wind though. Social sites often change or tweak their appearance. If the above dimensions do not work for you then most likely that platform has tweaked their layout to optimise for function or features which is their right to do. It’s still frustrating I know.
Here is a tip. Jump over to Canva.com to create the main banner images for your social sites. Canva is sure to have the latest dimensions ready to go out of the box. Best of all their entry product is free and insanely great.
By the end of the day, create a FREE Canva account. It’s more than just banners.
