Sunday breakfast, with nowhere to rush

For once, I let the coffee brew before opening my phone.

I cut the bread a little too thick. The egg needed another minute. But there was no train to catch, and the morning was mine.

Questions about note image sizes

What size should a note article thumbnail be?
Use 1280 × 670 px, the official recommended size for an article cover. The ratio is approximately 1.91:1. Keep text away from the edges and check it in the smaller list preview.
Why does my note header get cropped?
The upload canvas is taller than the narrow header on a creator page. note displays the central area, and its help warns that browsers and apps can differ. A larger file adds detail but does not prevent cropping.
Is 620 px the required width for article images?
No. The help page describes 620 px as a display width for larger images. You can upload a larger source within the 20 MB limit; note scales its width and height proportionally. Our 1240 × 930 example is a working canvas, not an official requirement.
Does this tool resize or upload my image to note?
No. It previews the layout in your browser. It does not modify the original file or publish to note. The creation button opens YouMind with a prompt you can edit; it does not attach the preview image.
Are these dimensions for note.com or Xiaohongshu?
This guide is for the Japanese publishing platform note.com. Xiaohongshu (Rednote) is a different platform with its own image formats.
