Header, with the covered areas shaded

Quick Tool Overview

The Twitter Header Maker builds a 1500 by 500 header with both hazards drawn: the profile picture that overlaps the bottom left, and the shorter band mobile crops to. Designing without those overlays is why so many headers have their text cut in half.

About the Twitter Header Maker

The header on X is 1500 by 500 pixels, and two things eat into it: the profile picture overlaps the bottom left, and mobile crops the top and bottom to a shorter band. Designing without accounting for both is why so many headers have their text cut in half.

Both are drawn as overlays here, so you can see exactly what survives. Beyond that it is a straightforward canvas: a background photo, gradient or colour, text with the outline and shadow options that keep it readable, and a logo. The download is at full resolution and sized so it does not get re-compressed on upload.

Readable text options

Outline and shadow controls that keep type legible over a photographic background.

Background flexibility

A photo, a gradient or a flat colour, each with the same overlays applied.

Full-resolution export

Downloaded at the native size rather than scaled up from a preview.
