Social Media Avatars and Cover Photos

Avatars

When you create a social media site on behalf of the university, use simple graphics that represent the SDSU brand. The University Marketing Communications digital and social media team can provide guidance with graphics and design.

It’s important to choose a profile image that works consistently across all major social platforms. We encourage you to use one of our branded social avatars, which come in a variety of designs and feature key brand elements.

If you have questions about proper use of the guides or are having problems downloading one of the files, please contact our office at 605-688-6161.

Cover photos

Photos work best for the header images on your social media sites. A photo resizes better for different-sized desktop browsers and mobile devices. Text and graphics can easily get cut off or covered depending on the device a visitor uses to access your site.

Different social media platforms have different requirements for the cover size. Profile pictures intersect or conceal the cover image differently across social media platforms. Make sure your photo fits the space properly and the best part of the photo isn't covered by your profile picture or another element.

University Marketing and Communications has a wide variety of photos available. Please feel free to use one of these campus photos for your site. Check back often, as photos will be updated several times a year.
