# X sizes and safe zones

Our recommended sizes and safe zones for images, video, profile pictures and headers on X.

- [X image](https://guides.avola.dk/x/image/index.md): 1:1, 1080 x 1080 pixels. We recommend images on X in 1:1 at 1080 x 1080 pixels. Square images show uncropped in the timeline.
- [X video](https://guides.avola.dk/x/video/index.md): 1:1, 1080 x 1080 pixels. We recommend video on X in 1:1 at 1080 x 1080 pixels and 25 frames per second, with subtitles uploaded as a file. The player and the subtitles cover roughly the bottom third.
- [X profile picture](https://guides.avola.dk/x/profile-picture/index.md): 1:1, 1080 x 1080 pixels. Make your X profile picture at least 1080 x 1080 pixels and no larger than 2 megabytes. X crops it to a circle.
- [X header](https://guides.avola.dk/x/header/index.md): 3:1, 1500 x 500 pixels. The X header is 1500 x 500 pixels in 3:1. Depending on the screen, about 60 pixels can be cropped at the top and bottom, and the profile picture covers the lower left corner.
