40 Creative Examples of Facebook Timeline Designs
Recently at the F8 Conference, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg introduced a massive redesign to our favorite* social media website. Honestly the new updates are understandable and from their point of view provide a better experience for the end user. From a personal point of view, each time they implement a change I get more confused, frustrated, and unwillingly forced to learn the new layout. When will they leave it alone? I have no idea. Facebook Timeline is a unique idea that has been getting some heat lately. Now let’s look at it on the flip side. Currently you have to be a developer to gain access to the new design because it’s still in the beta phase. Wanna Create your own? With the new update we think it give us, the users, a great opportunity to be creative!

Facebook Timeline Ads Show Your Clean Vs. Drug-Addicted Life In a creative social media campaign, media agency McCann Digital Israel has used the new Facebook Timeline design to advertise for the Israel Anti-Drug Authority. Utilizing the split-screen layout, they created a profile for a fictional man called Adam Barak and compared pictures of him side-by-side over the course of a year. On the left, the photos show a year of his life as a drug addict, whereas on the right they show a year without drugs. The comparative photos of Adam display stark contrasts in his appearance and surroundings, with the drug-free Adam looking happy and successful, while the addicted Adam seems to have lost his girlfriend, job and home.

One Facebook App for Multiple Facebook Pages By Martin · Wednesday,October12th,2011 Do you design Facebook Pages for many clients? This could be useful if you do. I needed to work out a way of using a single Facebook App for several Facebook Business Pages. First we need to set-up the app and require the facebook.php file from the PHP SDK (as you’d use for most FB Apps). <? Then we need to get the Facebook Page ID of the page the App is being used on: $signed_request = $facebook->getSignedRequest(); $page_id = $signed_request["page"]["id"]; For good measure, let’s also check to see if the visitor already liked the page or now: $like_status = $signed_request["page"]["liked"]; ? And… After you do all the usual header bits, call your JavaScript and CSS files, add content that is specific to the pages the App is being used on. <? The above tells the PHP to use the content of “page1.php” when the App loads on the page with the corresponding ID. You could also do this with PHP “echo” tags, like this: <? There ya go.
