Posted on November 12, 2012 by Dan Wilkerson 722 inShare 1K+ In June of this year, we published an infographic listing all of the sizing information for images on Facebook, Twitter, Google+, and Pinterest. It was a wildly successful piece of content, totally blowing our expectations out of the water. Unfortunately, while its popularity has flourished, nearly every social network instituted changes to their image sizes, rendering most of the information on the infographic out of date. We knew we needed to update the information on the cheat sheet, but we werent comfortable with simply adjusting one or two figures on the blog post and leaving it as- is. Wed also received a lot of feedback, both on the design and information it contained. We decided to redesign the entire sheet and incorporate a few more social networks. We also decided to permanently redirect the old sheet here, so that shared tweets, pins, likes, and so on, would lead to the correct sizing dimensions. Additionally, as sizing changes are implemented across social networks, well actively update this sheet meaning that if you use the embed code at the bottom to share this sheet on your own site, the image will automatically update with changes as they are rolled out. No more out-of-date information. So, without further ado, here it is the ultimate, complete, final social media sizing cheat sheet. As before, you can find a simple text list of the pixel dimensions at the bottom. Save this sucker on your hard drive and never Google Facebook cover photo size again.
