Pro tips for cropping
- Always work from a high-res original. Crop and resize from the biggest file you have — never upscale a small image.
- Use the rule of thirds. Place key elements at intersection points for more engaging compositions.
- Leave breathing room. Platform UI elements (profile icons, text overlays) can cover corners — keep important content away from edges.
- Test on mobile. Most social media is consumed on phones, so preview how your image looks on a small screen.
