X (Twitter) header and post sizes

The X profile header is wide and short, commonly prepared around 1500 × 500 pixels (a 3:1 ratio). X applies noticeable image compression in many views, so starting from a sharp, high-quality source matters more than on some other platforms.

The header is also cropped aggressively on mobile — phones show only the center of the banner, roughly the middle 1280 × 330 pixels — while in-stream post images display in a wide 16:9 frame (often 1600 × 900) and the profile photo is shown as a circle, not a square. Prepare each shape so the important content survives the platform’s cropping and compression.

How to resize an image for X (Twitter)

  • Upload or drag and drop an image into the tool.
  • Choose the X header, post, or profile preset to match your destination.
  • Adjust the crop to frame the most important part of the image.
  • Cut and preview the result across devices.
  • Export in your preferred format.

Cropping considerations for X

Banners are almost fully covered on mobile, so keep text and logos within the central safe area rather than the far edges. For post images, a wide 16:9 crop reads well in the feed and avoids the awkward auto-cropping that happens when the platform resizes your image.

X (Twitter) profile header safe zone

On mobile the header is heavily cropped and with limited height, and in-stream the grid crops the far edges. Keep your name, logo, and any text within the central region — commonly the inner 1280 × 330 safe area of the 1500 × 500 header — so nothing essential is cut off on small screens.

After you CUT the image, tap the See how it looks button to preview your header and posts inside a realistic X (Twitter) mockup, and check the mobile view to confirm the safe area looks right.

Frequently asked questions

What size is an X (Twitter) header?

The profile header is commonly prepared at about 1500 × 500 pixels, a 3:1 ratio.

Are my images private?

Yes — all processing happens locally in your browser.

Does X resize my images?

X compresses uploaded images, so exporting at high quality from a sharp source keeps detail. Cropping to the platform ratio yourself prevents X from choosing its own crop.

Why does my header look cut off on a phone?

Mobile shows only the central area of the 1500 × 500 banner. Keep text and logos within the middle 1280 × 330 region.
