Facebook profile pictures to enlarge, Plus Google does the same and also introduces the cover!

That the two social networks were challenging what was now known. For now the distance is of the order of 700 million users, but Facebook and Google + seem to continue the same social struggle . Last found, sorted by time, is the magnification of the photo-profile , those who watch your friends, so to speak. But what is behind this change?

In reality, nothing. At least, according to a Facebook spokesman confirmed that the enlargement of the photo (which is now located inside the cover image on your profile) increased the size 130 x 125 pixels to the 166 x 160 pixels.

On the surface it might seem a small thing. In fact, many users have complained that the “game” (the combination of cover and photo-profile, see photo below ) is no longer valid because it slip through all proportions.

Others seem to appreciate the initiative because it highlights what initially seemed to be sort of a personal avatar.In any case, Facebook has not made any comment about it. Probably, will already be thinking about what to do to prevent G + appropriates its “ideas”.

Frequent users (few it seems) Google Plus you will have noticed that has changed most radically the layout of social networks with a novelty in the profile section, where the image is larger (to the right and left as Facebook) and the cover (just call it that) is at the center. In short, a remake of the initiative, among other unappreciated, called “Diary” launched a few months ago by the American giant.

The fight goes to the tune of “similar moves.” Who do you think will win?
