Twitter ImageTwitter’s popularity is continuing to grow by the day and with so many users, it is now more important than ever to stand out from the crowd. The adoption of a custom Twitter background design is a great way to express yourself and make your twitter feed more attractive. Take this opportunity to show your personality and make your background design unique.

Let’s take a look at some of the main styles of Twitter background designs.

  • Patterned Background Designs

Patterned background designs not only look great but are also easy to create. You can use abstract patterns or something more traditional, both can look fantastic when repeated across the background. One big advantage of this kind of Twitter background design is that it will display well in any resolution on any computer. Look for a pattern which means something to you and which will allow you to express your creative side.

  • Tiled Picture Background Designs

A classic and easy to use background design made of a picture repeatedly tiled over the background. Use a picture of yourself or your hobby, and change the tiled picture regularly to show your adventurous side. A tiled background design is simple and easy to create, but can sometimes look a little tacky, so take care to use nice looking pictures in your design.

  • Using a Single Large Image as the Background

Depending on the image this can look really great as your Twitter background design. The picture should be at least 1600 X 1200 in size, and a picture should be chosen that still looks good even when the Twitter content area is placed over the top. Using a large image is a great way to achieve a striking Twitter background design. Think about how the color and design of the background image can really make you stand out.

  • Extend your Twitter Profile with a Sidebar

This involves placing extra profile information in the background of your Twitter feed. You can add a larger photo of yourself or any other additional information as required. Although a little more complicated than most designs, this is the most informative of Twitter background designs, and will really get attention from visitors.

  • Single Color Background

This is the simplest of all Twitter background designs, but can also be very effective. Choose a color which best expresses your personality and place it as the background. The effect can be very effective.

Designing your own unique Twitter background design is a great way to express yourself and show the world your personality. Let your background reflect your interests or your work, and do something creative to make your profile really stand out from the crowd. The more interesting and creative your Twitter background design is, the more chance there is that a stranger who stumbles across your Twitter will follow you. Do something inspiring and let your creative juices flow!
