1500 x 500 Resizer
1500 x 500 pixels is the header (banner) size on X, formerly Twitter — an unusually wide 3:1 strip across the top of a profile. The profile photo overlaps the lower left of the header, and the visible area shifts between desktop and mobile, so centred compositions survive best.

The X/Twitter Header Size
X displays profile headers from a 1500 x 500 upload — a 3:1 ratio that is much wider and shorter than a typical photo, so most images need deliberate re-cropping to fit.Uploading at exactly this size means you choose the crop, rather than letting the upload dialog decide which slice of your photo survives.
Designing for a 3:1 Strip
The profile picture overlaps the lower-left of the header, and the edges crop differently between desktop and mobile — the only region visible everywhere is the centre.Treat the middle of the canvas as the stage and the outer 10-15% as bleed: background texture there, nothing essential.
Beyond Twitter: Any Wide Banner
A 3:1 export also suits generic wide-banner placements — email headers, website hero strips, and profile banners on smaller platforms that accept wide images.Because 1500 x 500 is a manageable file size, it downscales cleanly wherever a narrower banner is needed.
