FAQ
Can I create posts and Stories using the free subscription?
Absolutely! You won’t have access to some of the premium graphics and templates, but you can still build your design using the capabilities of the free subscription. Subscribing to Premium will only make your work easier and better :)
How do I pick the right image resolution for my posts and Stories?
Generally, you can click the “Create” button and select from our library of image sizes fit to the requirements of every social media platform. Still, we will remind you that Instagram recommends 1080x1920px resolution for Stories and 1080x1080px resolution for a standard post.
How do I convert my post to use it for Stories?
You can do this using the “Smart scaling” function. Just choose your desired image size, and the tool will automatically rearrange all elements across your design to fit the new resolution. After that, you can make edits to the new design if you want to rearrange the elements yourself.

How to improve your posts and Stories
Use expressive images
Image quality is key. Use photos with high resolution that feature saturated colors. If you choose to use graphic elements, keep them creative and aligned with the theme and content of your posts. Good images are crucial in capturing the audience's attention.
Keep up a unified style
Developing a style can help your brand or profile become recognisable. This can include specific styles, frames, visual effects or even particular ways of editing pictures that make you stand out.
Use a fixed color palette
Color can highlight certain features of your brand or evoke specific associations. Pick your color palette with consideration to how you want to be perceived and what message you’re trying to convey. For example, warm colors tend to come across as cosy, and brights can set a joyful, dynamic mood.
Work on your composition
Visual composition refers to the way you arrange elements across an image. Try to follow rules - such as rule of thirds - to place objects in a more harmonious, visually cohesive way.
Add text
Captions, quotes, titles and hashtags can help your content convey more information to the viewer. Use legible font, size and color to make your text readable and complimentary to the rest of the design elements.
Pay attention to detail
Be careful with minor details. Crop out unnecessary objects from the photos you use, adjust brightness and color balance, and make the final image clear and appealing. Even a small adjustment can make a big difference.
Try a different format
Having good variety in your content can help you grow your audience. Videos work best for showing your process or conveying more complex information, while an image carousel can tell a story or display several ideas in one post.
Be cohesive
Try to be consistent in your social media presence. This means developing a recognisable visual style and keeping up with a posting schedule. Your audience will be drawn to your reliability and know what they can expect from you in the future.
Common mistakes to avoid in designing posts and Stories
Low quality images
Using low-quality, blurry or pixelated images will decrease the overall quality of your design. Try keeping your visuals sharp and high-resolution.
Information overload
Trying to squeeze too much information into one design will always fail, resulting in an incoherent and hard-to-understand post. Try to stay clear and concise in your messaging.
Too many filters
Using too many filters, animations and visual effects can distract from your message and make your design look obnoxious and unprofessional. Use them with discernment, maintaining a clear and natural look for your designs.
Changing styles
Switching your styles too often can make your profile look overall chaotic and unappealing. Develop a brand style and keep to it in order to make yourself recognisable.
Low legibility
A poor choice of font, color or background can make your text too difficult to read. Pay attention to legibility.
No mobile optimisation
Keep in mind that most users will see your design on their smartphone screens. Make sure to adapt your posts and Stories to a small screen.
Wrong aspect ratio
Each social media platform offers its own recommendation on best resolutions to use for posts and Stories. Ignoring those can make the final image appear as cropped or distorted.
Poor placement and cropping
Leaving a few odd pixels on top or to the side of your image can make it look significantly less appealing. Crop and align your images carefully to make them look sharp and professional.
Breaking the color palette
Not keeping a consistent color palette across your post can make them look more disjointed and confusing. Try creating a specific color palette and maintaining it across your designs.
Missing context
Sometimes an otherwise great design can fail to land with your target audience or be unfitting for a current event. Always consider the context and adapt your designs to it.
