Make a 1200x630 Link Preview Image

When a web page is shared on Facebook, LinkedIn, in a chat app or on many other sites, the preview card shows an image the page names in its Open Graph tags (og:image). 1200 x 630 pixels is the size most commonly recommended for that image: wide enough to look sharp on large screens, and in the roughly 1.91:1 shape that link cards use, so the card does not have to crop it. Blog featured images, article thumbnails and social cards for a website are often made at exactly this size for that reason.

Open one image or several. The size boxes show 1200 x 630, the preview shows the wide frame, and Download saves a file exactly 1200 pixels wide and 630 high, with -1200x630 added to the name (holiday.jpg becomes holiday-1200x630.jpg). Upload it where your site or blog platform asks for the social or featured image.

Choosing a Mode for a Share Image

The shape, 40:21 when reduced (about 1.91:1), is wider than any ordinary photo. A 3:2 camera photo loses a strip from the top and bottom; a phone photo held upright keeps only a band across its middle. The Mode switch decides how the picture meets the frame:

Crop to fill, the default, scales the image to cover the whole frame and cuts off what sticks out. In the preview the part that stays is lit and the rest dimmed; drag the lit window, or tap where it should go, to keep the headline object, the face or the product in view. Each image in a batch keeps its own crop, so pick its thumbnail to set it.

Fit inside keeps the whole picture and fills the sides or the top and bottom with a background. This suits logos, book covers, screenshots and product shots that must not lose an edge: a logo centred on white or on your brand colour from the picker makes a clean preview card. Transparent is available too, but many sites show the preview on their own background, and a JPG with a transparent background is saved as PNG.

Stretch pulls the picture to exactly 1200 x 630 without cutting anything. It distorts anything that is not already close to the wide shape, so it is rarely the right choice for a photo.

Keep the Middle Important

Some places show share images smaller or trimmed to a different shape, for example a square thumbnail in a narrow chat window. Keep the subject and any text near the centre and away from the edges, and the card reads well wherever it appears.

Many Images, Any Format

Add a set of featured images for several articles with the + tile after the thumbnails; each gets its own crop. With two or more, Download as offers one ZIP, separate images (the share sheet on a phone) or, in Chrome and Edge on a computer, a folder you choose. Files keep their format unless you pick JPG, PNG or WebP in the menu beside Download; the Quality slider sets JPG and WebP quality. Resizing uses Lanczos resampling, phone photos are turned upright first, and a file already 1200 x 630 in the asked format is returned untouched.

Need a different size? Enter it in the boxes, or open 1200x1200 for a square share image, 1080x1080 for a square post, 1500x500 for an X header, 1584x396 for a LinkedIn banner, or 1920x1080 for a Full HD frame.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the aspect ratio of 1200x630?

40:21, which is about 1.91:1. Divide both sides by 30 and you get 40 and 21. It is a little wider than 16:9.

My logo gets cut off in the preview. What should I do?

Switch to Fit inside and pick a background colour. The whole logo is kept and centred, with the spare space filled in, so nothing is cropped away.

Why does the old image still show after I replaced it?

Social sites keep a copy of the preview they fetched earlier. Most offer a debugging or inspector page where you can ask them to fetch the page again; giving the new image a new file name also helps.

Is my image uploaded to make the preview?

No. The resizing is done by your browser on your own device. The only upload is the one you make yourself to your website afterwards.
