Facebook Timeline PSD Template
Lots of fun examples in the post and a downloadable template at the bottom.
what’s new on Facebook
I must have caught this really early because I can’t even find anything on the web about it. It seems that Facebook has released a new feature today for viewing posted images.
Some of the changes I noticed are:
- white space for profile info, comment and details has been moved to the right when it was previously below the image.
- when you hover over the image left/right navigation arrows come up as well as photo details, tag and like buttons.
- there is now ‘Sponsored’ (advertising) links added
- looks like the optimal image size is square in orientation (probably for instagram and hipstamatic images).
- and my favorite change… it’s responsive.
- what does this mean? it means, depending on the uploaded size of the image, Facebook will keep the original size and shrink it down to the device or screen size you are viewing from. In testing it, the smallest size seems to be iPad using landscape view (1024 x 748 pixels).

How To Get Tons Of Clicks On Facebook Ads: Images
I agree with most of the recommendations but there has to be standards. Cleavage and thin red borders might get people to click but what does that say about your company if it has nothing to do with what you’re advertising?
