Resize to X Profile Photo

This lesson is part of Web Developer Tools · All levels

Summary

The X profile picture is displayed as a circle with a reference size of 400 x 400 pixels. Because it's small in the timeline, use a simple, contrasting face or logo. The platform will cut the angle of the image, so position the subject right in the middle. PNG or JPG formats with a size of a few hundred kilobyts are more than enough.
