Tips:
1. Don't make or choose your twitter cover photo too cluttered. Remember that in today's time most people view their profiles from a smart phone, having small screen as compare to laptop. So heavy image can slow down the speed of their smart phone while uploading image.

2. Don't put too much text. People are not going to spend a lot of time reading your header. So keep your text simple and easy to read.
3. Don't place an image right in the center of the header because it will be covered by text. Your primary image real estate is on the sides of the header.

4. Most of your header portion is covered by the text.
5. Check how the header looks on the mobile as well as the main site. If possible try to check how your header appears to the other person. It is possible that you need to adjust or some shifting can be done when you view it from a smaller screen.
