RE: You Can Now Add A Cover Image To Your Steemit Profile
heard a lot of people are using 1920x300 to get a nice look. if you use a big image it uses the middle section of it like on mine. . .

Thanks for the input @teamhumble!
yesterday i played around with it to see if could get the rough size and ended up using 2480 x 275, i found that anything higher then 275 for the height of the image, then it would not sit right, like you say it takes the middle section of your image, a way round that is to try and take the image of the person and make that no higher the 275px and add it to a backgroud that is approx 2480px,
i checked the image out on different monitors and depending on the size of the monitor it will alter how the image fits too
i also noticed that our cover image show ups on esteem, and it way our of proportion for the platform lol
Thanks for letting us know. :)
I tried 1920 x 300 since someone mentioned it, and it took the upper part of the image. Maybe i should try your dimensions sometime later.
It became weird on eSteem haha. My previous cover (black background) turned pink on eSteem...
yeah mine too lol
Btw I tried your dimensions and it works well!
Hiya @alvin I’m starting to think there is no perfect size, I just checked out your profile on my computer at work and and this is what I saw
when I went home I checked it out on another computer slightly smaller and this is what I saw
on the smaller screen even less of your cover image was visable, so I am taking that everyone will see it different
I had a go at moving your end images slightly more to the center, so that they bracket the profile script hopefully this will enable a better overall view for any visitors to our blogs
This is what I saw on my computer as I tested it out on my own blog
and this is the image I used
obviously you do not have to use it just want to show, how we will all see something different depending on what size of screen we use
and that if we are going to use some writing or an image on each side of the profile script then probably better off not going too far to the end of the 2480px width but make it slightly more central
i did read that 1000px wide works but i have not tried it out personally
Hey thanks for letting me once more. I heard it from someone else as well, that my cover was off. My screen is pretty wide, so it shows up just nicely. I guess I'll have to edit it again. :S
