2. Facebook profile picture image size.

While Adobe Express has many pre-made template sizes for you to choose from, you can also use the customised size option under resize in your Adobe Express workspace to enter precise measurements in pixels, inches or millimetres. If you have a work in progress and need to resize halfway through, Adobe Express will maintain the layout when you resize to keep your design intact.

8. Trouble uploading Facebook photos? Try these tips:

How to make images for Facebook.

Start with inspiration.
We hook you up with thousands of professionally designed templates, so you’re never starting from a blank canvas. Search by platform, task, aesthetic, mood or colour to have fresh inspiration at your fingertips. Once you find a graphic to start from, just tap or click to open the document in the editor.
Remix it to make it your own.
There are lots of ways to personalise your Facebook image templates. Change up the copy and font. Sub out the imagery with your own product shots or photos. Or browse from thousands of free images right in Adobe Express. Spend as little or as much time as you want to make the graphic your own. With a premium plan, you can even auto-apply your brand logo, colours and fonts, so you’re always #onbrand.
Amp up the flair.
It’s easy to add extra flair and personality to your projects with our exclusive design assets. For example, apply a text animation for short-form graphic videos in one tap. We’ve taken care of all the boring technical stuff so you can focus on your message and style. You can also add collaborators to your project, so you can have more hands-on-deck bringing your Facebook posts to life.
Resize to make your content go further.
Gone are the days of having to memorise image dimensions for every single platform. Once you’ve landed on a design you like, you can easily modify it for any social network by using our handy resize feature. Simply duplicate the project, hit resize, select the platform you want to adapt it for, and we take care of the rest.
Save and share your Facebook images.
Once your Facebook image design is complete, hit that publish button. You can share your designs right to your Facebook feed or share them digitally via email or link sharing. Or print out your designs at home or with a professional printer to be turned into posters, flyers or cards. Adobe Express saves your designs, so you can always revisit your projects if you need to update them.
