Facebook's timeline header, which is sometimes also referred to as the Cover Picture, has a specific pixel size. If an image does not match the exact pixel size that is recommended for the cover pictures, the picture may not fit and the entire header would look inappropriate.
Any image that you want to use as Facebook timeline header must be 851px in width and 315px in height (851 x 315).
Although there are many pre-built Facebook headers available online, if you know how to use an image editing application like Adobe Photoshop, you can create your own Facebook header of the correct size, and can add the images and/or text of your choice to it.
Once you have successfully created or obtained the image of the exact size, here is how you can use the picture as the header of your Facebook profile:
10. Once you have selected the picture, tap the USE button from the top-right corner.
11. On the Drag to adjust interface, drag the image to set it accordingly.
12. Finally, tap the Save button at the top-right corner of the interface to save your header (cover photo).
