Facebook scales down your event cover photo to minimum dimensions of 470 x 174 pixels, which is the size of the image that shows up in the feed. Another thing to keep in mind: If you use a cover photo smaller than the recommended 1200 x 628 pixels, Facebook will enlarge it to fit. And that means a stretched-out, distorted cover photo. As a rule, go with the recommended size (or as close to it as possible) to avoid cropping or distortion.

Pursue Dating has continued in their pursuit of creating healthy, happy Christian families as the popular dating site recently introduced a new algorithm designed to make matching more effective. The proprietary system will help the black dating site achieve the goal of helping black singles and professionals meet, connect, and find love without wasting too much of their resources in terms of time and money or meeting “incompatible” singles.

Dating as a Christian can be somewhat stressful, considering the level of decadence in the society. Consequently, it has become increasingly difficult for Christians, particularly black Christians to find true love that will eventually lead to a happy home. While there are several online dating and matchmaking platforms available, many of such dating sites do not particularly meet the needs of users. This is where Pursue Dating has been able to change the narrative over the years, emerging as the go-to black dating solutions provider for Christians that want to build a happy family. The recent introduction of the new matching algorithm is a further reiteration of the site’s goal of creating an amazing happily ever after story for black singles

Described by many as the #1 Black Christian Dating Site, the proprietary system ensure that members of the community find the most suitable companion based on their preferences. This does not only help to save time, but also goes a long way in building a strong foundation for a happy family that will not collapse in the shortest possible duration due to incompatibility.

The user-friendly website is easy to navigate, allowing users to sign up in a couple of minutes without having to pay a dime. Users can subsequently build their profile by uploading their photos and other such details as required. Pursue Dating allows members to see photos, interact with one another, have fun, and even meet to set up a beginning of the eventual tying of the knot.

Facebook, primarily used as a social networking site, has developed its Facebook Messenger app which is a rival to any other messaging app like WeChat, etc. The Messenger is reliable as it doesn’t require any contact number and keeps your contact number hidden. But, the Messenger app may annoy the users due to its inbuilt notification on the screen of a phone. So, any of your Facebook friends can message you anytime and you will get the notification of the message.

The continuous messages are irritating and the default notification setting always notifies the user. To prevent the annoyance, it is possible to mute someone on Facebook conversations. The results are pretty satisfactory because the user will not receive any notification about new messages from a muted friend.

Are you receiving annoying notifications?

1. Launch the Facebook Messenger app.
2. Tap on a chat you want to mute.
3. Tap either on the username or the exclamation sign at the extreme right of the username.
4. Select Notification and turn the toggle button off.
5. Select the time till you want the notification mute.

1. Open your Facebook messenger app.
2. Hold your finger on a chat you want to mute.
3. Select Mute conversation from the list appeared in the screen.
4. Select the time of mute till you want it to be mute.

1. Open the Facebook Messenger app.
2. Select the menu button and click Settings.
3. Select the checkbox to turn on and off the notifications.

The muting notification feature gives an opportunity to keep annoyance away. In other words, the user will be undisturbed for the period, but remember that muting will not last forever. As there is a time limit to keep a conversation mute which you have decided. When the time is over, as a user you will again receive notifications, but yes you can still turn on mute option on your Facebook messenger.
