Default Another facebook question

Actually, two questions.

1 - Can anyone suggest the optimum file size to sell as 'for facebook and email use'?

2 - I am trying to set up a facebook page that is the personal type, but with my business name. I don't want a business page, because as I understand it that type of page can't "like" and stuff.
I don't have a personal page, so I'm not violating any Ts and Cs. BUT, I had to use my name to create the account - it's clever enough to know that Valley Photography is not likely to be real person's name - and I now want to edit the user name. I have got as far as the 'Enter desired username' box, but the system won't let me type anything in to the box. Any ideas???

Hi Lisa, If you refer to the other FB question post, you'll see that you can indeed have a business page and "like" other pages, I just went thru my personal likes and liked them all on the business side as well. You would login in with your name and then switch to your business when on that page.

As for 1-:

The FB image viewer is 600px square, so 600px on the long side is best. That gets 600x400 or 400x600 for uncropped images. Always watermark. I also require that people tag me (for small, personal work) or my business page (for business work) in the photo as well.

Thanks, Buddha. I did see that other thread. The thing is that I don't want my own name connected to a fb page. For reasons that are too boring to go in to.
That's why I wanted to just have an account with the business name

Thank you! That's just what I needed.

I could be wrong here, but I think no matter how you do it , you're going to need to use your name somehow, somewhere.. I just went on my business page and it's completely seperate from my personal and does not show my name on it anywhere, you could just set-up the account and not friend anybody and just use the business end of it???

OK, thanks. I'll see how it goes.
