Here is a quick guide:

Cover photo: 851 x 315 pixels

Small inset photo: 180 x 180 pixels

Tab photos: 111 x 74 pixels

 The cover photo is not a common photo size and you may find it difficult to find a suitable photo of your own.  Inevitably though many websites have sprung up to provide free ready made photos – just Google “Facebook cover photos”.  If you would prefer to create your own, one way round the problem of the unusual size is to make a collage of photos – I created this one using Picasa:

Facebook has done it again! Just when I thought I had a nice Facebook landing page on my business page and was offering this as a service to my clients:

I woke up one morning (April 1st?  no - March 30th actually, but it might as well have been!) - and it looked like this:

Nice one, Facebook!  That looks great!  Now, not only do I have to change all my Facebook sites and my clients' sites, but I have to completely revise my website that talks about customising websites - grrrrr!

Business pages have been changed automatically, but don't think you can relax if you have a personal Facebook page - yours will be changed shortly if it hasn't been already - you can read more about it here  http://on.fb.me/Ji4k2p.  Watch out for my next blog that will tell you more about how to set up your new Timeline, or if you are struggling - get in touch with us and we can do it for you.

Having recently embedded a YouTube clip into a web site I was working on using the neat bit of HTML5 code below:

<iframe class="youtube-player" frameborder="0" height="207" widt=”289” src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/57pczWFtS0U" type="text/html" width="289"></iframe>

I was frustrated to find that when I went to view the video clip on my web page it was causing a problem with my pop up image gallery by appearing in front of all the images that popped up.  I immediately thought I was going to have to start digging deep into the depths of my style sheets and hunt out the relevant z-indexes when I came across the fantastic quick fix below:

Simply add 

?wmode=opaque

To the end of your video clip url and hey presto your problem is solved.

This may sound like a silly question but it is not obvious how to find a list of the Facebook business pages you have "liked" - so try this:

http://www.facebook.com/pages/browser.php

and click on "My Pages" (top right) and...there they all are, my favourite pages all together!  Oh joy!
