Decisive for a good representation of the background and avatar in the Twitter-Account is the right combination of image size and image resolution.

The right dimensions for the Twitter background

  • In the "Appearance" section of your Twitter account, you can upload your own background images or use one of the templates that are of course optimized for the best possible display.
  • The file formats gif, jpg and png are supported by Twitter.
  • For an optimal display, even on large screens, a background image should have the dimensions of 2100 x 1900 pixels.
  • If the Twitter background image is too small, it will be displayed multiple times. This may have an intended, artistic effect, but most of the time it is not intended and therefore looks amateurish.

  • Note that different monitor settings change the display of background images, so each user sees the background image slightly differently. You should therefore check the display in various browsers such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome.
  • Large files increase loading times, which is uncomfortably noticeable with slow internet connections. A user often stops loading a page if it is too large pictures need to be loaded. Instead of waiting, he prefers not to visit your page.
  • In order not to lose visitors through slow page loading, your image file should only be slightly larger than 300 KB.

The right dimensions for avatar images

  • A personal avatar picture always belongs to a Twitter account. It is issued in different sizes in the account, but always has a square base. If you upload an image, it will automatically be reduced to the appropriate size.
  • In the tab "profile"Your Twitter account has the option" Change picture ". There you upload your avatar to the Twitter server.
  • If the template for an avatar is not square, only a section of the image is presented that you cannot influence.
  • The avatar image can be a maximum of 700 KB.

With an avatar generator (for example Simpsons Avatar Generator or Face your manga) you can create your own personal avatar with the right dimensions.
