About the Facebook cover photo size
A Facebook Page cover photo displays at 851 by 315 pixels on desktop, but you should upload it at double that, 1702 by 630, so it stays sharp on retina screens. The tricky part is mobile: Facebook crops the sides off and slides your page name and action buttons over the bottom. Anything you need seen, a logo or a tagline, should sit in the centre and above the lower strip. Upload as PNG if your cover has text or a logo, JPG for a photo.
