redbandit599 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Hi all Does anyone have a simple way of setting your band Facebook banner page so it looks decent in all formats? We like to update it with the next gig. With the new version having the Profile Image stuck right in the middle it's a royal pain in the bottom. Wish we didn't need it...

BigRedX Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Yes it is a problem. And add to that, the fact that the specifications change every six months or so, and what works under the old spec will almost certainly look rubbish on at least one platform under the new one. There are web sites that will give you all the relevant specs for the various platforms and the better ones will show you the area that you need to cover so that your image is not resized to fit, and the area that will be visible in all formats for that image size. The unfortunate truth is that the area that is common to all platforms is generally fairly tiny compared with the overall image size required to suit everything, and this in particular tends to render it fairly useless for displaying lets of text. I have a feeling that this is done deliberately so that the cover image cannot easily be used as "free" advertising in the way that the OP wants. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
