Banner for Twitter Profile | How to Scale a Banner for Twitter Profile: Twitter is a primarily mobile site, like Instagram , that users can browse on their desktop web browsers as well. The essence of Twitter demands that you regularly compress and resize your uploaded profile and post photos, and you should always optimize your Twitter images with loss-y JPEG compression in mind to maximize interaction.
Fortunately, the Shutter stock Editor helps you to correctly scale images with only a few clicks for Twitter use. For Twitter, here’s how to resize an image depending on where it will actually be used.
How to Scale Banner for Twitter Profile
- 1500 x 500 pixels is the perfect size for a Twitter profile banner.
- Notice that Twitter uses a responsive interface, so you can repeatedly re-crop and scale your profile banner on a desktop web browser.
- Choose clean images that are plain.
- Keep near the middle of the profile banner any text or logos so that they are not partially or fully blurred when the image is re-cropped.
- Open the Shutterstock Editor and pick My Files from the left-hand menu, then press Upload to import your own images, or simply drag and drop your image onto the canvas.
- If you want to create your own template using the stock picture collection from Shutterstock, click the Images button to browse our collection.
- In the canvas options menu at the top, click on Canvas scale.
- To set your picture ratio to 1500 x 500 automatically, click ‘Twitter Banner’. It’s so easy!
- When your template is complete, in the upper-right corner, click Download and pick your desired file format. Images formatted as JPEG or PNG are accepted by Twitter.
How to Size a Post for Twitter Timeline
Twitter allows one to four images to accompany every tweet. Picture tweets are 34% more likely to be retweeted, so practice integrating pictures into your tweets to fuel engagement and grow your brand.
For a Twitter timeline post, the ideal resolution is 1024 x 512 pixels. The images are uploaded in a 2:1 ratio, but blurry, unprofessional images will be created by reducing the pixel count of your designs.
- Open the Shutterstock Editor and pick My Files from the left-hand menu, then press Upload to import your own images, or simply drag and drop your image onto the canvas.
- Alternatively, to find Shutterstock’s perfect stock photo, click the Images button.
- In the canvas options menu at the top, click on Canvas scale.
- To set your image ratio to 1024 x 512, select a Twitter post.
- Once your design is finalized, click the Download button in the upper-right corner and select your preferred file format. Select either JPEG or PNG.

If I do not have a vector editor, can I use vector images?
Without loss of resolution using Adobe Illustrator, vector illustrations can be edited and scaled to any size. You can open it as a JPEG image with Photoshop if you want to use a Shutterstock EPS vector but do not need the editing and scaling properties.
Using Adobe Illustrator or other vector editing programs, vector illustrations can be edited and scaled to any size without loss of resolution. The industry standard for the opening and editing of EPS vector files is Adobe Illustrator. If you want to use a Shutterstock EPS vector but do not need the editing and scaling functionality, you can either save it as a JPEG from the site or open the EPS file as a JPEG image in Photoshop. Here’s how to do so:
- Opening an EPS file with Photoshop
- Download the EPS file to your computer
- Open Photoshop, choose File
- Open, and select the EPS file that you downloaded
- Choose your dimensions and resolution; at least 300 dots per inch is recommended for print
- Choose CMYK for print or RGB for web or TV
- Select Constrain Proportions to maintain the height-to-width proportions and click OK
Example
For example, a vector EPS file might be 4″ x 4″ in its native size, but you might need it larger.
- You can open the file in Photoshop and change the Image Size to 45″ x 45″ at 300 pixels/inch.
- After clicking “OK” the vector will be resized and you can save the file as a JPEG.
- Now you’re going to have a big file with no loss in quality. Depending on your version of Adobe Photoshop, these steps could be slightly different.
