Twitter/X Image Size Guide 2026

X crops in-feed images toward 16:9. 1200×675 is the size that avoids unexpected crops. Square 1200×1200 also works. Headers and profile photos use different ratios.

  • JPG for photos. PNG for graphics with type.
  • Keep file sizes modest. X compresses large uploads.

How to Resize for Twitter/X

  1. 1

    Choose landscape or square

    Product photos often look better square. Link cards need 16:9.

    Resize with the Twitter/X preset

    AutoSizer outputs 1200×675, 1200×1200, header, and profile sizes.

  3. 3

    Post on X

    Upload the matching size so the timeline preview is not cropped.

Pro Tips

  • If a graphic has a headline, put it in the middle third so crops do not hide it.
  • Batch resize a campaign set before you schedule tweets.
  • Reuse 1200×675 assets for LinkedIn link posts with a light crop check.
