Why presets beat manual cropping

Typing pixels into a generic editor is error-prone and usually distorts through forced crop. Presets set the width and height to Facebook's exact numbers while preserving your aspect ratio as much as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

What keeps Facebook from cropping my cover photo?

Use the exact 820×312 size. Facebook shows covers differently on mobile, so keep important content toward the center.

Should I resize or just upload the original?

Facebook downscales giant files, but it compresses them on the way, sometimes visibly. Pre-resizing keeps your image sharp and uploads fast.

Does the tool support PNG with transparency?

Yes, resizing preserves format and transparency.
