Slicetige Lite is a free and cross-platform Facebook timeline image creator, which can be used in order to easily edit and arrange images used in the famous Facebook timeline, this goes for both the background image, the so called cover image and the smaller image in the lower left corner when you’re looking at the timeline, which is called avatar.
By default Slicetige Lite comes opened with its own timeline template where you can learn how it works. On the image above, a lot of tools are present in the toolbar in the upper part of the program, but not all of them will be available for the users of the free “lite” version of Slicetige. The reason why they will not be available is because Slicetige is actually donationware, which means that some of the features only become available when you pay a donation, amount of which is not set. Features that become unlocked after donation is made are:
- Text insertion
- Image Layers
- Quick Social Buttons
- QR and MicroQR code generation
Timeline has been introduced into Facebook in the late 2011, which changed the way that our profile information can be seen, and it also gave users new and interesting ways of how they can decorate their profiles. Those who have been trying to create timeline templates which look nice and are in sync have probably discovered that doing something like this isn’t very easy, to get the images to fit just right, this is where Slicetige Lite can help you out, it will automatically slice the image, so that you see everything displayed properly when you upload them on your timeline.

Free Facebook timeline editor- Slicetige Lite
Even without previously listed features that you only get after donating, you can still do a lot with this free Facebook timeline editor and creator. A very popular way of decorating the timeline would be by combining the background of the avatar with the background of the cover:
Notice how the cover background seems to just be an extension of the avatar, you can do the same thing with your own images with the help of of Slicetige Lite.
The thing that Slicetige does is that it allows you to easilly cut photos and images so that you have in the size required for them to fit snugly on the timeline without there being any kind of cropping on the part of Facebook, which could perhaps cut out something important, ruining the overall design of the timeline. Use Ctrl + mouse dragging in order to center images in their place.
Conclusion
Once that you export images with the File >> Export option, they will be saved and cut and then you just need to upload the image to Facebook where it can start decorating your timeline. With the advanced features which you can open up by giving a small donation, you get even more tools which convert Slicetige into a serious image editor, which has layers, text editing, QR code generation and more, but make sure to try the Slicetige Lite version first, it’s free.
