How do i post a picture on facebook

Facebook is a key way for your business to keep in touch with its clients, and adding photos helps keep Facebook subscribers interested in your posts. You can upload photos directly from any mobile phone. This is useful for photoblogging special events, sharing brand new products before the "official" photos are taken or just sharing an interesting image. You can either log in to Facebook's mobile site or you can email the photos directly to your company's news feed. Android users can upload photos directly from the Gallery app.

All Smart Phones

  1. 1.

    Log into Facebook through your phone's Facebook app, or go to m.facebook.com through the mobile browser.

    Whether you are adding pictures to your personal Facebook account or a business page, Facebook gives you an assortment of options and features. This can be a bit overwhelming if you have not used Facebook in a while. You can edit the pictures, tag people, add text and apply stickers. You can also control the quality and size of your pictures so that Facebook does not automatically edit them for you.

    Upload Photos to Your News Feed

    Adding photos to your news feed is quick and easy. The process for adding them to your personal news feed is similar to adding them to a business page.

    1. At the top of your Facebook news feed or profile page, click the Photo/Video option below "Create Post". If you are on your business page, click the Upload Photos/Video option.
    2. Select the photos you want to upload and click Open.
    3. Tag people, if desired, by hovering over the photo, selecting Tag and then typing their names. The photo appears on their news feed and appears to their friends or only your mutual friends, depending on the privacy preferences you each selected. 
    4. Edit the photo, if desired, by hovering over the photo and clicking the Edit button.
    5. Click the Story option if you want to check in at a specific location. 
    6. Choose your audience and click Share. Select Public if you want anyone to see the photo. Otherwise, you can select Friends or specific people to see the photo or select people who cannot see the photo. Note that whatever audience you choose, it becomes the default setting for the next time you upload a photo. 

    If you have the Facebook app on your smartphone, you can also add photos directly from the phone's photo gallery.

    Editing Photos on Facebook

    Before uploading a photo, Facebook gives you the option to edit it. You can do this by hovering over the photo and selecting Edit before you click the Share button. When the Edit window opens, you have several options:

    • Filters: These change the mood of your photo. The Vintage filter, for example, fades the color, while the Winter filter cools the image with a blue hue.
    • Tag: By clicking on faces in the photo, you can add names. To tag someone, they must have a Facebook account. People can disable being tagged by changing their personal security settings.
    • Crop: Crop the photo, either in its original aspect ratio or in a square. You can also rotate the photo. 
    • Text: Add text to appear on top of your photo. You can select the color and font, as well as specify if it is centered or left-justified.
    • Alt Text: Add text to describe the photo for people with visual impairments. The default alt text is also displayed here.
    • Stickers: Place an assortment of stickers on the photo. You can also move and re-size the stickers.

    Creating and Using Facebook Albums

    Facebook albums are the best way to organize photos, particularly if you want to restrict who can see sets of photos. Both photos and videos can be added to albums.

    1. Go to your Facebook profile, click Photos and then click Create Album. 
    2. Select at least one photo or video to begin the album and select Open. 
    3. Enter a title for the album and, if desired, add a description or location. If you want to allow others to post images in the album, select Add Contributors.  You can also tag friends in the album. 
    4. Select your Privacy preference and click Post. 

    Whenever you want to add a new picture to the album or edit its contents, go to your Photos and select the album.

    Controlling Photo Quality

    At its default settings, Facebook automatically resizes and reduces the quality of photos when you upload them. You can keep this from happening if you upload pictures that are already optimized for Facebook.

    All photos should be saved as JPEG files, using an sRGB color profile. Cover photos should be 851 pixels wide and 315 pixels tall, with a file size less than 100KB. All other photos should be 720 pixels, 960 pixels or 2048 pixels wide.
