Official : Facebook Page Tabs Reduce Size To 520px : 23rd August
After driving many of us crazy, Facebook have finally announced the official date that they will be reducing the size of Facebook page tabs from 760px to 520px. “Boxes” will also be discontinued.
This means that static fbml pages not designed to 520px will look rather drab when the new spec kicks in….arghh!
The date is Monday 23rd August – be sure to get yours fixed!
If anyone needs a redesign please feel free to contact us for a very competitive quote!

Yes we have been awaiting the date too – it was becoming rather frustrating!
How does this effect page owners?
Hey Andrew,
If you use ‘boxes’ they will no longer work & if you have a custom landing tab it will need to be no wider than 520px.
If you do not use either of these you will see no changes!
If you would like a custom landing tab (have a browse through our portfolio) or need anymore help you can email me
Ps – we were also very glad to see an official date released; the past few months it has been difficult explaining why we work to 520px…especially as time moved on and nothing official was announced!
