Perhaps the weakness of the Facebook social network is that images are always blurred and reduced in quality when posted on this platform. Fortunately, there is a way to fix it, and the article below will give specific instructions on how to post photos on Facebook without blurring, refer to it now.

Why are photos posted to Facebook always blurry and of low quality?

Blurry images uploaded to Facebook are not a system error as many people mistakenly believe. In fact, the only reason is to increase the loading speed of the website for users. To do that, Facebook created a system to compress all images into a common format. Since this process is automatic, your images may be reduced in quality when uploaded to Facebook due to the platform's image compression system.

Why are photos posted on Facebook always blurry?

Facebook supports images with resolutions of 720px, 960px, and 2048px width. Any image file with a resolution other than these three levels will be degraded when you upload it to Facebook. Reducing the resolution of a photo also means that the overall quality and contrast will be significantly reduced.

However, there are two ways to make sure your photos are clear and not blurry when posted to Facebook: adjust the image width; and change the settings in Facebook.

Change image width to post clear FB photos

As mentioned above, Facebook supports three main image resolutions: 720px; 960px; and 2048px. If your image is exactly one of these three widths, it will retain its original quality when you post it to Facebook. And there are two things you need to do with your image before posting it to Facebook to make sure it looks sharp:

Adjust image width
Change image file

First, we will resize the image. On your computer/laptop, you can check the image size by hovering over the image and looking at the Dimensions line. Alternatively, you can also right-click on the image and select Properties -> Details. Details about the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the image will be displayed here.

And to convert the horizontal orientation of a photo, right-click on the photo and select Open with -> Paint to open the photo in the familiar drawing application Paint.

On the Paint toolbar, click Resize or press Ctrl + W to open the photo resizing window. In the Resize section, click on Pixels. Next, enter one of the three pixel numbers above in the Horizontal box.

Moving on to the final step is converting the image file. To optimize the quality of the image, we will use a PNG file. If your image is default PNG, you can press Ctrl + S to save the edited size.

But if it's another file, you can convert it to a PNG file right on Paint. Specifically, go to File -> Save as -> Select PNG Picture file -> enter the image name and save location as desired -> click Save. That's it!
