This is from Google Plus, but I corrected their typo. Click to enlarge this graphic.
Have you set up your Google+ page yet for your small business? One of the first tasks you must do is upload your profile picture and scrapbook photos.
Profile Pictures should be a minimum of 200 x 200px and preferably in jpg or png format. Your profile picture will be reduced down to 48 x 48.px for use across pages, so resize your picture at those measurements to double check how good it looks before you upload your full size image.
Scrapbook Photos are the row of photos that appear at the top of your page. Unlike Facebook,s row of images, Google+ images won’t shift each time the page reloads. They remain in the same order – so you can get really creative with those five images. The specs on them are 125 x 125px with 15px between each. Recommended upload size is 150 x 150px, but again – double check the images at 125 x 125px before uploading.
Hope you’re having fun with your Google+ page and making good use of it! While you’re over there, add me to your circles!

Thanks for this great tip. Can you tell me how to resize the photos so it fits in the allotted space. Right now, Google+ is cutting off rather than shrinking the photo to fit. I am on Windows and have Corel…I dont have photoshop. Thanks, Marion
Hi Marion, Thanks for the question. If you’ll send me an email at connect@michelleharbour.com, I’d be glad to help you out.
