Headshot or Logo for Your Page?
Businesses usually use a logo. People whose business is their name, such as realtors, coaches, consultants and creators, often use a headshot so followers recognise the person they will deal with.
If you use a headshot, use the same one on your website and other profiles so people can match your Page to you.
Making a Headshot Fit the Circle Crop
Facebook crops the picture into a circle, so keep your face centred with space around your head; corners are cut off. A plain or softly blurred background stays clean at 176 pixels.
Upload a square image of at least 320 × 320 pixels so it stays sharp on high-resolution screens.
The generator creates square headshots that crop cleanly into a circle.
Updating a Page Picture
When you change a Page profile picture, followers may see the update, and the new image appears beside every post, comment and message from the Page. Check the preview at both desktop and phone sizes before saving.
