How to Change Google+ Cover Photo Type

The newest Google+ update gives users the ability to change the type of cover photo they wish to display. Originally, you were given 5 individual image boxes to customize and create a creative profile page, but now Google+ allows you to use a single image, much like Facebook’s Timeline. This style is called Landscape. Here is how to change the style type of photo(s) being displayed:

• Go to your profile page.
• Hover over an image within the “cover photo” space. Click on “change cover photo.”
• You are brought to a screen where you can decide on the template to use. Decide which style you prefer; landscape or the individual images.
To activate the 5 individual images, you will need to upload a photo before selecting Ok.
