Facebook changes to new timeline theme how to get & customize it

The world's largest social network site Facebook recently changes their theme. After a long time Social         network Facebook giving an option to change user profile theme to new timeline theme. I already see that very huge amount of user already liked it and changes to new timeline theme. Some user wants to back old Facebook theme. Now let’s see timeline's  features.
 
What is timeline?
Your time line includes your photos, stories and experiences. You could add a cover image on your timeline page, edit your basic info, jump to the past, view your activity, see highlights from each month, star stories you want to highlight, add life events, update your status, add photos, share your app activity.

How to switch your new timeline theme?
It's very easy go to here  then click on Get Timeline button at the end of the page. After getting your new timeline theme you could publish it or hold it 7 days to fully customize your timeline theme with cover image and other materials. At that 7 days time if any one enter to your profile they will see your old Facebook profile but after publishing your profile everyone will see your new profile. Remember that Facebook do not giving any option to officially go back or switch back to your old Facebook profile theme. So before switching to new timeline theme think well to change your profile. Another think is I hear that Facebook will automatically change all user profile to new timeline.

To add cover image
This cover image shows your personal and company theme. You could add picture, your company logo, your twitter YouTube username etc. At the end of the image you could tell to subscribe for your update. This image has a special power to show your total Personality. It’s like web site or blog page header image. It's very easy to upload a cover image to do that click on the button add cover in opposite side of your profile picture.

How to make and customize professional cover image for your timeline?
Recently I make some professional cover image for some of my clients. You could get a professional cover image from here.

Editing your basic info
Timeline make this option so easy. To edit and customize your basic information just click on the button update info. There you could update your basic info, contact info, work and education, home, relationships and family, favorite quotations, about you etc.

Activity log
Activity log give show you everything you share on Facebook including all your stories, likes etc. Only you could see your activity log. You could control what’s goes or show on your timeline. You could see a drop down menu under each story at your activity log then there you could control it to delete or mark as spam or hide from timeline.

Jump to past or highlight by each month
You could jump to any month by clicking on month name of right side of your timeline profile. Also if you go down or scroll down your profile then timeline will automatically show your past activity.

Make feature or star stories
You could make any stories feature by clicking on star sign. You will see a star icon in right top side of every story if you click on it then this story will show larger and featured. I like this featured or highlighting animation. You will see after clicking star it will go larger in wide.

Life event
You could add photo, life event, text, could select audience, location or could tag any photo.
Now what you thinking about new Facebook theme timeline ? Some user wants to go back to old Facebook theme. But generally it's not possible but I hear that some people get their old profile by deactivate their Facebook account for 10 minutes. Remember it's deactivating not deleting account. This method is going to Facebook account and deactivate for temporarily for 10 minutes. After coming back 10 minutes they got their old Facebook theme. But Facebook did not tell anything about this until this issue.

Some people already make some new group and new pages to gather user to dislike this new timeline theme and spreading their voice to get back to old Facebook theme.  Finally I see mixed interaction about this new Facebook theme timeline.  So what you thinking about timeline ? Express your thought by leaving your valuable comment below.  Thank you to all my readers.
