Stop Letting Platforms Crop Your Photos
Upload a picture with the wrong shape and the platform decides what to cut off, which often means heads, logos or text. A social media image resizer lets you prepare the exact shape in advance.
Portrait wins in feeds
On Instagram and Facebook, 4:5 portrait posts take up more screen space than square ones, which gives them more attention while scrolling.
Plan for the crop
Keep the important part of the picture near the centre. Profile grids, previews and thumbnails may show only the middle area.
Want a wide panorama as a swipeable post? Use the Instagram Grid & Carousel Maker. Need a lighter file afterwards? Run it through the Image Format Converter. Making a video cover? Test it in the YouTube Thumbnail Tester.
