Create your own cover photos for your bio on Facebook

If you are tired of seeing the same image, and none of the various  sites to create cover photos for your biography in Faceboo k  leaves you satisfied, you can create your own cover photo . You only need to have an original image, which you can take with your webcam, cell phone or portable digital camera.

An original cover photo will help to give you an even more personalized touch to your bio on Facebook . The following steps will guide you to create your new cover image.
  1. Choose the photo you want to use for the cover of your biography
    Find a picture you like and you have saved on the hard drive of your computer. It may be that you have stored in the My Documents or My Pictures. Or if you sent it to a person you know, may still be in one of the emails you have received. And if you have any, take one using your mobile phone, webcam or digital camera.  No
    you download internet pictures that belong to other people , and you're exposing potential legal problems that could potentially cost you a lot of money.
    Once you select the picture you want to use, save it to your computer desktop for easier you find it again in the next step.
  2. Edit your cover photo
    Digital cameras that exist today, and even cell phones, are able to take digital photos at a very high resolution. This means you are able to create large images. These sizes are ideal if you want to print, but do not play in your favor if you want to use as your cover, because Facebook will reduce its size automatically, ruining what could be a very good cover shot.
    To address this potential problem, I recommend that you edit your photos yourself. If you do not have a photo editing program such as  Adobe Photoshop ,  Paint Shop Pro  or similar, do not worry. You can use a free editing program and online, which allows you to use the features you need to create your cover. I recommend you try using the web application called  Pixlr . A second alternative is the application  LunaPic .
    Upload your photo in one of these programs. Remember to use the photo you chose and you saved on the desktop of your computer.
  3. Measures your photo
    The  exact extent of the cover photos on Facebook  is 851 pixels wide by 315 pixels tall. That is,  851 x 315 .
    Following these measures, crop the image you want to use to fit them. Use the Crop tool or  Crop , or just create a new image with these measures and paste on it a new layer that contains the photo you want to use.
    When you set the picture measures you will use, save it on the desktop of your computer using a name that is easy to identify.
  4. Upload your new photo to Facebook Cover
    It's time to get your new cover, and this process is very similar to  upload a photo to Facebook . The most direct and simple way to change your current carried by the new photo you've created is:
    • Visit your timeline on Facebook.
    • Place the pointer of your  mouse  over your current cover photo.
    • When you see the button  Change cover  click on it.
    • Choose the option  Upload a photo .
    • Select the photo you created and click  Open .
    • Facebook will show you how it is. If your image allows, you can move it to fit.
    • When you're ready, click Obre  Save Changes . If you change your mind, click on  Cancel .
  5. You've created your new cover photo
    I have a new cover photo, completely original and you've created yourself. If you are unhappy with it, repeat these steps to create a new, this time using a different image. Or if you want you can try the same but adding text or different details about it.
    And if you still think you have no good pictures for a cover photo, the solution may be closer than you think. If you have a cell phone camera
