Cover image guidelines & best practices

Cover images help your post stand out across Paragraph, Farcaster, and beyond. Follow these guidelines to ensure your images display correctly and look great everywhere.

Recommended dimensions

• Ideal aspect ratio: 2:1
• Recommended size: 2000 × 1000 px
• Minimum size: 844 × 422 px

Images smaller than 844 × 422 px may appear pixelated or blurry on larger screens.

Cropping and display

Paragraph enforces a consistent 2:1 crop across the platform. The image is centered automatically and adapts slightly between desktop and mobile views.To ensure important details aren’t cut off:

• Keep key elements (faces, text, focal points) within the center 60–70% of the image.
• Avoid placing text or critical details near the top or bottom edges.
• Test your image on both desktop and mobile if possible.

File Format

• Use high-quality PNG or JPEG files.
• Avoid transparent backgrounds.
• Keep file sizes under 5 MB for best performance.

Design Tips

• Choose simple, high-contrast visuals that work in both light and dark modes.
• If including text, place it near the lower third of the image with generous margins.
• Avoid overly detailed or busy imagery that doesn’t scale well to small previews.
