How to apply filters on your Facebook profile photo

Facebook users can apply filters to the profile photo, using a native editing tool, before posting it on the social network. Also available in the iPhone app (iOS), this feature features six filter patterns to customize the images: vintage, spring, summer, fall, winter and snow - the latter leaves the image in black and white.

Here's how to apply filters similar to those of Instagram in your Facebook profile picture.
