Your photo covers part of it
Your profile picture sits over the lower left of the banner, so put any text toward the right. On phones the banner is shown smaller, so keep text large.
Choosing an image
A 4:1 strip keeps only a slice of a normal photo. Wide scenes, simple patterns and plain backgrounds with a short line of text work best.
