Facebook Changing Picture Sizes

A picture may still be worth 1,000 words, but it will be sized differently on Facebook starting Wednesday.

The Facebook Developers team announced that it would increase the maximum size of photos on the social-networking site to 720 pixels from 604 for a limited number of users, while at the same time decreasing the maximum size of profile pictures to 180 pixels by 540 pixels from 200 by 600.

The post read:

Starting this Wednesday, Jan. 20, we’re increasing the size of the largest photo a user can upload to 720 pixels (up from 604).
