Social platforms change their preferred image sizing and formatting every year.   Every platform seems to want different sized images. Some prefer horizontal images, others vertical, and some even prefer square images. To help you with your posting, we present our guide to the best image sizes for social media. We cover all the leading social media networks in this guide.   ![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/v5PKNipVrrtTB0ZO-r11g1PYmW9-KzeOdtjgU_1HtmAmPL8Bn0Lqm5JqY1dFtG4k92yRml3w-MqreJMuZAgIswPm0BseNsmmlCUUUUkCTAWM0zQK8abVETdakCZJJ1dl6-bXJJl9) ## ***INSTAGRAM IMAGE SIZES:*** **PROFILE PHOTO:** 320 x 320 pixels   **FEED PHOTOS:** *Landscape:* 1080 x 566 pixels *Portrait:* 1080 x 1350 pixels *Square:* 1080 x 1080 pixels   **THUMBNAILS:** *Display size:* 161 x 161 pixels *Recommended upload size:* 1080 pixels wide   **STORIES:** 1080 X1920 pixels   **CAROUSELS:** *Landscape:* 1080 x 566 pixels *Portrait:* 1080 x 1350 pixels *Square:* 1080 x 1080 pixels   **REELS:** 1080 x 1920 pixels **ADS:** *Landscape:* 1080 x 566 pixels *Square:* 1080 x 1080 pixels Min. width: 320 pixels Max. width: 1080 pixels **STORIES ADS:** 1080 x 1920 pixels   ![](https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/vJvyJtH4ikbFJR0OIRTH6N6opqcUGrwg0dEg5734T7_Z0LOMPH92BVhrxNn1kI_TT1kErYDDPw8UPZ8byIQaq8Fh95JUWRpeWBDG6xU2H3uL4LsSvJ7Moq1lH3PdcGtY9zHOBjVc) ## ***FACEBOOK IMAGE SIZES:*** **PROFILE PHOTO:** 170 x 170 pixels   **COVER PHOTOS:** 851 x315 pixels (Recommended)  820 x 312 pixels (Display size desktop) 640 x 360 pixels ( Display size smartphone) 400 x 150 pixels (Minimum size)  **POSTS & TIMELINE PHOTOS:** 1200 x630 pixels (Recommended) 600 x 315 pixels (Minimum size)    **COVER PHOTOS:** 1200 x 628 pixels (Recommended)   **PANORAMA OR 360 PHOTOS:** 30,000 pixels in any dimension, and less than 135,000,00 in total size   **STORIES:** 1080 x 1920 pixels   **ADS:** *Feed ads:*  1080 x 1080 pixels Minimum size 600 x 600 pixels *Right Column ads:* At least 1080 x1080 pixels   *Instant Articles:* At least 1080 x1080 pixels   *Marketplace ads:* At least 1080 x1080 pixels   *Search:* At least 1080 x1080 pixels Minimum size 600 x 600 pixels   *Sponsored Messages:* At least 1080 x1080 pixels   *Messenger inbox ads:* At least 1080 x1080 pixels Minimum size 245 x 133 pixels   *Messenger Stories ads:* At least 1080 x1080 pixels Minimum width of 500 pixels   ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/5YyCULJMpn2iMhJfMfIHVUDktBERzciON4zId-_wJKBHn6r4b2PSOu50Zd7wKSpNuAyq14GUq4SWnrTFhlqqwn_Nf_EJnY2XLlZm827sBtm4XjKn680xE-bLrLrsOtvutxERr9yd) ## ***TWITTER IMAGE SIZES:*** **PROFILE PHOTO:** 400 x400 pixels (Recommended)  200 x200 pixels (Minimum size)  **HEADER PHOTOS** 1500 x 500 pixels   **IN-STREAM PHOTOS** 1600 x 1900 pixels(Recommended)  600 x 335 pixels (Minimum size)    **CARD IMAGE:** 120 x120 pixels (Minimum size)  **ADS:** *Single and multi-image tweets: * 600 x 335 pixels (Minimum size)    *Website card image:* 800 x 418 pixels for 1.91:1 aspect ratio. 800 x 800 for 1:1 aspect ratio.
