Framing advice
- Keep important content and type away from the top and bottom edges, leaving crop room inside 1500 × 500.
- Check the result on desktop and mobile after uploading; the crop changes with the viewport.
- X publishes no banner file-size limit — do not carry the avatar or ads limit over to the banner.
The most common failure
Sitting a heading against the top or bottom edge, where different browsers and screens cut it off.
