Tumblr Post Image size at a glance

Tumblr's dashboard column is 540px wide, so post images scale to fit that width. A 540×810 (2:3) canvas takes up good vertical space in the scrolling feed without being excessively tall.

Why 540×810 matters

Tumblr's feed is a single-column scroll, so image height directly controls how much screen real estate your post occupies. Taller images command more attention.

What happens when the size is wrong

Images wider than 540px get downsized to fit, wasting file size. Very wide landscape images appear tiny in the single-column layout.

Best practices

  • Design at 540px width for the sharpest dashboard display.
  • Vertical images dominate the feed better than landscape.
  • Tumblr supports animated GIFs natively — leverage this for engagement.
