How to Upload a Custom Background Image on Twitter

Uploading a Custom Background Image on Twitter

First, you have to be on your settings page of twitter. To get to that page, click on your profile picture in the top right corner of your screen. When the drop down list appears, click on ‘settings’ near the bottom.

Twitter gives us a variety of options when it comes to designing the physical appearance of our accounts. The settings are meant for people to have fun with, as well as securing the information on their account. If you want to create a custom background image, you can do so as many times as you’d like.

1) First, you have to be on your settings page. To get to that page, click on your profile picture in the top right corner of your screen. When the drop down list appears, click on ‘settings’ near the bottom.
