VK cover size: community, profile, mobile and live cover

A VK community cover is 1920 × 768 pixels — VK’s own figure, one image for desktop and phone. On a phone the sides are cropped, so the name, logo and call to action go in the centre. A live cover is a separate format: a vertical 1080 × 1920 video up to 30 seconds.

What size is a VK cover?

For a community, 1920 × 768 pixels in JPG, PNG or GIF. It is one image for every device: on a computer it shows almost in full, on a phone VK crops the sides. The older 1590 × 530 that still circulates belongs to the previous design.

The mobile safe zone in practice

VK publishes no exact safe zone and guides measure it differently. The reliable rule: on a 1920 × 768 layout, keep the name, logo, phone and call to action inside a centred 960 × 480 rectangle, then check the community on a phone.

Building a cover whose text survives

Set a 960 × 384 canvas. It exports at double density — exactly 1920 × 768.
Background by the model, text as real text, so the name and phone have no typos and can be changed without a redraw.
Keep the key content in the central half — a centred 480 × 240 on that canvas.
Check on a phone and move text inward if needed.

Exact banner sizes for ads and websites are in making a banner with a neural network.
