Instagram

Instagram is one of the most popular photo-sharing social networks with a user base of over 100 million people. It’s a great place for you to take and share fun or creative photos that show what you or you’re all about.

Profile Picture – 110 x 110

Instagram is based on photographs, which should be an indication of how important it is to pick a great one for your page. Instagram will automatically create a header that cycles through some of the photos that you post to the page, so it may be best to use your profile picture to create a static image of you or your brand.
Image Guidelines

• Appear on your home page at 110 x 110 pixels.
• Square photo – make sure to maintain an aspect ratio of 1:1.

Photo Thumbnails – 161 x 161

When someone goes to your page they’ll be presented with all of your photos arranged in rows of thumbnails. These smaller renditions of your photos will expand when clicked, and will include a place for people to comment.
Image Guidelines

• The thumbnails will appear on the page at 161 x 161 pixels.
• Square photo – Make sure to maintain an aspect ratio of 1:1 ratio.

Photo Size – 640 x 640

Instagram is all about the photos. These pictures are going to appear in the feed of all of your followers.
