Just Resize the Image to 1000×500 and Voilà
For 3 days I tried to upload a new Twitter header for our @porno account but kept getting the same “Internal Server Error”. I followed all the Recommended dimensions of 1252×626 and Maximum file size of 5MB but it still wouldn’t work! Then I tried different file formats .png, .jpeg and .gif and still got the same error! I searched all over Twitter and Google trying to find the solution then finally I resized the image to 1000×500 and it worked!
if anyone is having probs with the new Twitter header, just resize from 1252×626 to 1000×500… we tried 10x before we finally got it!
