Facebook link preview
Facebook asks for link images of at least 1200 × 630 pixels in 1.91:1, which show in full in the feed with no cropping.
1.91:1
1200 × 630 pixels
- Recommended
- 1200 × 630 pixels
- Minimum
- 600 × 315 pixels for a large image
- Shown as
- The whole image in a large card
- File size
- Up to 8 megabytes
Below 600 × 315 pixels the image still shows, but much smaller. The absolute minimum is 200 × 200 pixels.
An image that is not close to 1.91:1 is cropped. Facebook does not say how.
Facebook keeps images by their web address, so a new image needs a new address. Its Sharing Debugger shows what Facebook sees.
