- X converts PNG images with more than 900,000 pixels to JPEG: use PNG only for small graphics and screenshots with text.
- Timeline images are cropped to 16:9: design for this ratio to avoid unwanted cropping of important content.
- Profile photos and header banners should have key content away from edges since they are cropped differently on mobile and desktop.
- For predictable quality, export images at the preset dimensions rather than relying on X to resize them.
