Following are the important points which need to be considered while uploading a photo to Facebook to avoid any issues:

1.Size of the Image

An error message might be received if you try to upload an image which is larger than 15 MB as the Facebook’s Flash Uploader might encounter problems while processing such a large image. For photos you are uploading as a profile picture, you will see an error message if the size of the image is more than 4 MB. There is a restriction on the profile image size so that all the profile pictures are of the same length and width in pixels.

2.Dimensions of the Image

You may receive an error message if the image you are uploading is three times wider than its length. You can check or adjust the image’s length or width by opening the image in ‘Paint’ and in the Home tab click on ‘Resize’. This will show you the image’s length and width. Also, the image you want to use as a profile picture must be at least 180 pixels wide. To check the image’s width you can search the image in the Windows Explorer and then right-click to check ‘Properties’.Facebook Help Number is also there to help you in case you want any help from the technical expertise.

3.Type of the file

To upload an image on Facebook it should be only in .jpg, .png, .bmp, .tiff, or .gif format. Also, Facebook doesn’t support animated GIFs and still if you try to upload it only the first frame of the image will be shown as a still image. If you want to upload a high-quality image whose size is more than the standard size you need to bring it to a size of 15 GB by saving it in the .jpg format.

4.Restrictions for uploading an image

You will receive an error message if you are uploading more than two hundred images to a single album. However, you can create as many albums you want. The maximum number of images that you are allowed to upload to the “mobile uploads" folder is one hundred. If you exceed this number, Facebook will automatically create an extra mobile uploads album.
