Recommended export size

1600×900 px

How it works

1. Lock the X/Twitter aspect so crops stay predictable.
2. Use bold templates when you need loud launches.
3. Export PNG or JPEG and attach to your post or thread opener.

Best practices

• Assume viewers skim: one idea per image.
• Check contrast for dark-mode timelines.
• Thread starters benefit from a numbered or teaser hook.
