X (Twitter) image sizes
| Image | Recommended size | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Header | 1500 × 500 px (3:1) | The profile picture covers part of the bottom left; phones crop the top and bottom |
| Profile picture | 400 × 400 px | Shown as a circle |
| Post image | 1600 × 900 px (16:9) | Shows uncropped in most timelines |
Header tips
- Keep text and logos near the center: the edges are cut differently on phones and computers.
- Leave the bottom-left area empty; the profile picture sits on top of it.
- Use the same visual style as your profile picture so the profile looks like one brand.
Count your post with the X character counter, check an account's real creation date with the X account age checker, or see aged X accounts.
