Social cover images
Cover images have prominent presence on all social channel homepages. They are great brand applications to showcase the unique projects, events, and learning experiences that SFU students, faculty, and researchers are involved in.
Different templates are available for various types of information.
LinkedIn template
Similar to Twitter, only one template is required for the LinkedIn cover image. 20 px of the image will be cropped from the bottom on the mobile devices and the lower left corner will be covered by part of the square avatar. We recommend placing the logo on the upper right corner of the cover image to avoid avatar interference.
LinkedIn cover implementation
The cover image on LinkedIn is wide but shallow. Its size reduces significantly on mobile devices. We recommend using the image only layout for LinkedIn.
Drag to reposition the image up to ensure the logo aligns to the top of the frame. Always review the image on both desktop and mobile devices.
Cover image is small with obstruction from the avatar. Keep the amount of content to minimal to avoid clutter
LinkedIn cover application
The examples below demonstrate how the social avatar and cover image appear together on a LinkedIn profile page.
