NEW TO PHOTOSHOP? LET’S CREATE A FACEBOOK COVER

We shows you how to create a perfectly spaced, sized, and positioned Facebook cover image. Sure, you could take your chances and upload a

carefully selected photo for your cover image, then hope limited repositioning controls in Facebook let you adequately present

your creative vision.

Select File > New. Set the width to 851 pixels, the height to 315 pixels, and resolution to 100 pixels. These are the minimum dimensions for a cover photo on Facebook. This allows you to design your cover photo in Photoshop without guessing how it will appear on Facebook.

Click OK. A new blank document will open.

Click and drag one of the corners of the bounding box. Constrain the proportions by pressing Shift while scaling the image. Reposition the image: Click and drag the image in the bounding box. When you're done, press Enter.

Hint: While designing, keep in mind that your profile picture will cover the bottom left corner of your cover photo!

A second dialog box might appear, depending on the selected file format. If so, specify your additional options and click OK.
