How to Add Animated Cover to Your Facebook?

Facebook is no doubt the most popular social network. We write something, share something, upload photos and videos, add friends, create personal pages, play flash games, and more. And as a personal facebook page, choose a beautiful and special Timeline Cover is unarguably the priority. Of course you can upload the photos easily by clicking “add a cover” to choose the photos. But if you want to add animated images like GIF files, you may need to take other method. Following, I would like to introduce the way to add animated photo covers on Facebook.

Step 1.At first you need to upload your GIF photo to your Facebook. Just make a Photo post.Then click the photo in your timeline.Copy the "fbid Number" in the url.

Step 2.Then move the mouse to the cover photo, click Change cover>Choose from photos.
