Twitter has very recently rolled out a brand new profile layout! Closer in appearance to Facebook’s profile layout, this new Twitter layout featured a wide header photo and a larger profile picture. Here’s what’s new or different:
1. Wider header image. 1500 pixels wide by 500 pixels high to be exact. It spans the full width of the page.

2. Larger profile picture. 400 pixels by 400 pixels square to be specific.

3. Pin tweet to top option. Highlight a favorite or important tweet to the top of your profile page.
4. Most popular tweets. Those tweets that receive the most interaction will appear a bit larger than other tweets.
5. Filtering options. You can now filter what you see by:
- All Tweets (โTweetsโ); this can also be sub-filtered into just โTweetsโ or โTweets and replies.โ
- Tweets with photos or videos (โPhotos/Videosโ).
- Profile overviews of those you’re following (โFollowingโ).
- Profile overviews of those following you (โFollowersโ).
- Tweets that you have favorited (โFavoritesโ).
- Lists (โListsโ found under the โMoreโ tab); this can be sub-filtered into โSubscribed toโ and โMember of.โ
This new profile layout is now available to ALL Twitter users! If you haven’t already switched, here’s how.
1. After you’ve logged in, a โTake a Lookโ window may pop up. Click on the button.
2. This will give you an overview of the new layout. To set it into action, click on the โTurn It Onโ button.
OR, if neither of the above windows pop up above your old profile, you can GO HERE to get the change moving.
