I can't find a decent motorbike based cover photo at all, they're all too tall! Such an awkward size

I need to have a little project on this to try and do an awesome cover/profile picture combo

I've seen a few cool ones on Failbook.

I get a feeling this Timeline thing will screw up a lot of peoples relationships as it hasn't even been released yet and people are already worrying about it

I don't get why everyone is worrying about this...

It isn't making anything public that wasn't already available.

If people wanted to look at your Facebook posts from years ago they could, they just had to keeps scrolling down for ages.

Completely agree; lots of paranoid and immature people out there.

Cover photo quality is pretty bad. Any tips?

DB_SamX · 18 Dec 2011 at 16:21

Think they need to be uploaded as high res to start off with.

Just picked a random one for now.

DB_SamX · 18 Dec 2011 at 16:43

Ray, any of your random ones could be considered awesome by most other people.

What you could do is mirror your profile photo, and create a cover photo that shows a speech or thought bubble of sorts to create a seamless image.

First go at making something slightly more interesting for the cover photo. Needs improvement but plenty potential.

TurnipHead · 18 Dec 2011 at 17:46

Mine still hasn't updated. :/

Has anyone got a template of the banner size, with the profile picture overlap? I would like to have a play with mine as mine is a bit pants at the moment.

+1 Edit: there are a few templates on the net.

Turns out my suggestion to Raymond has been done.

CliffyBiro · 18 Dec 2011 at 22:59

Don't like it at all.

Ah, my profile finally changed!
