Twitter Image Sizes
Don’t
let its logo fool you–Twitter is not just for the birds. In fact,
with 313 million monthly
active users, Twitter is one of
the social media networks that your customers will most often use to discuss
your brand. And recently, Twitter made some big changes to its overall layout.
Profile Photo: 400 x 400 (Displays 200 x 200)
Your
Twitter profile photo is the main image that represents you or your brand
across the network. It’s going to be seen across the site in a number of places
by a number of people so make sure it’s of the highest quality. Here’s the
places your profile photo will be visible on the site.
- On Your Page: The largest display of your profile picture is on
your homepage and can be viewed by your followers as well as individuals
who stumble upon your page.
- In-Stream: A smaller version of your profile picture appears
in a follower’s Twitter stream every time you Tweet. It also appears in
the stream of your followers’ followers every time you’re Retweeted.
- Who to Follow: Your profile picture is also going to appear next to a
link to your page in the “Who to follow” box. This is located directly to
the right of your twitter stream. Choose a recognizable image here.
Image Guidelines
- Square Image recommended 400 x
400 pixels.
- Maximum file size 2 MB.
- Image types include: JPG, GIF
or PNG.
Header Photo: 1,500 x 500
Your
header photo is the image that spans the top of your Twitter profile page. It’s
quite a bit larger than your profile photo so make sure to save it at the
highest resolution possible. Because you have more room to be creative with
this picture and it will likely be the first thing your visitors see, make it
something captivating.
Image Guidelines
- Recommended 1,500 x 500 pixels.
- Maximum file size of 5 MB.
- Image types include: JPG, GIF
or PNG.
In-Stream Photo: Minimum 440 x 220 (2:1 Ratio)

Free Tools for Creating Unique Images
Twitter users can
attach photos to any of their Tweets. Luckily, Twitter updated to no longer
count characters against your Tweet limit. Uploaded photos will appear in your
followers’ streams and the streams of their followers (if Retweeted).
It’s
important to note that Twitter may collapse your photo into a smaller version
to fit in a user’s stream. Make sure Twitter displays the portion of the photo
you want followers to see by setting the width of your image to fit the minimum
requirements. Also, horizontally center your content so the most important
elements of the image are visible in the collapsed version.
Note
that if you share a link with a featured image on Twitter, you have the option
to display the image as part of a rich Twitter Card. The automatic rendering for a shared link
will display the image slightly smaller than a standard in-stream photo, so if
you want to optimize that featured image for Twitter, be sure the most
important parts of the image are horizontally centered. If you do choose to go
the Twitter Card route, you can preview the end result in Sprout’s Compose window before you publish.
Image Guidelines
- Minimum to appear expanded 440
x 220 pixels (a 2:1 ratio)
- Recommended aspect ratio is
16:9.
- Can tweet up to 4 images at one
time.
- Can edit images if tweeting
from Twitter iOS or Android app.
- Maximum to appear expanded 1024
x 512 pixels.
- Appears in stream collapsed at
506 x 253 pixels on desktop.
- Maximum file size of 5 MB for
photos, and 5 MB for animated GIFs on mobile and 15 MB on web.
