SoMe: Facebook Timeline Cheat Sheet for Images

Unless you've been hiding under a rock the past month, you've probably heard that ALL Facebook "Pages" are converting to the new Facebook Timeline this Friday, March 30, 2012.

For some of you this is an exciting opportunity to market your brand in a new way, with a hip scrapbook-esque feel. For others, the idea is terrifying! I mean, you just got used to the old set-up and now Facebook is pushing a major change on you. Again.

One of the most complicated things people have asked me about Timeline is what size different graphics should be so that they're not cut off, etc. For those with Photoshop you're probably less concerned, you go for the trial and error route. For those without, who wants to pay a graphic designer to make a new cover photo and it be the wrong size? Either way, getting it right the first time around is the way to go.

Which is why I've created an easy Facebook Timeline Cheat Sheet for Images to help you get started, showing the ideal size for all page elements. So be sure to keep this close-by when designing your Timeline, and don't forget to share it with a friend!
