Adaptation of Facebook Timeline cover and avatar with a Template
For Facebook, there are already some so-called hacks: Album hack, profile hack and now there is the Timeline hack...
With these "hacks" you change look of your Facebook profiles/pages/etc by individual images that are seen in the whole as a single image.Facebook Timeline Information Site
Therefore I created a Photoshop template, which allows you a quick and simple preparation.
The dimensions of the Timeline header image is 851 x 314 pixels (wxh) and the avatar image 180x180 pixels, but is reduced from Facebook automatically to 125x125 160x160 pixels.
Timeline Hack Step by Step
- After the download unzip the file and open fb_timeline_template.psd
- In the layers folder "personalization" do your personalisation
- Then hide the layer "overlay" and create two separate pictures (use the guides or the layers "avatar" and "header" for the sizes of the pictures) - you dont need this step if you use the supplied action set!
- Upload them and choose it as avatar and title picture.
- Done!
Update Facebook Timeline Template v1.1
rafomac. has send me a revised version. Thank you rafomac!Now its bigger to avoid facebook errors with the files and I added a Photoshop action (double-click on the Facebook_timeline_hack.atn Photoshop action to add) In the action pallet you can run the action and it automatically creates the two needed pictures for you.

Update Facebook Timeline Template v1.3
Facebook changed the size to 160x160 pixel and position of the avatar a bit (bigger like the google+ profile picture ;)
You must use the new action which is packed in the .zip file so the files will be created correctly
