What width should my background images be for tumblr and twitter? - Shayna - 10-03-2012 03:47 AM

I make them 1024px wide and upload them but the come up about 400 pixels short and just get filled in with a back ground color on the right hand side. If I make my images longer and longer, this does fix the problem. But it confuses me. I thought 1024 was standard. Why is this happening? How many pixels are they looking for exactly? Thanks for any help you can give me.
