How to use

  1. 1

    Paste or upload your screenshot into the tool above — this page starts with the social post-card header enabled.

  2. 2

    Edit the name, handle, and avatar URL in the Social Mockup panel to match your own profile.

  3. 3

    Pick a gradient, check the composition, then download the PNG and attach it to your post.

Native images beat text announcements

Every major feed — X, LinkedIn, Facebook — expands attached images inline while collapsing plain text behind "show more." A launch announced as text is a headline nobody opens; the same launch announced with a polished screenshot card is a billboard in the timeline. For product updates, milestones, and feature announcements, the image isn't decoration — it's the distribution.

The social post-card mockup takes this one step further. By framing your screenshot with a name, handle, and avatar above it, the graphic reads as a native post preview rather than a random image — viewers parse it instantly as "someone announcing something," which is precisely the mental frame you want before they read a word.

Make the mockup yours

This page opens with the social header enabled, showing placeholder details. Open the Social Mockup panel and replace them: your display name, your handle, and an avatar image URL. The result looks like your own post preview — a small touch that makes announcement graphics feel personal rather than templated.

A word of honesty: the mockup is stylized, not a pixel-perfect clone of any platform's UI, and it doesn't post anything for you. It produces a PNG you attach to your real post. Keep the name and handle truthful — presenting someone else's identity in the header is misrepresentation, not marketing.

Aspect ratios that survive the feed

Feeds crop ruthlessly. X displays attached images at roughly 16:9 in the timeline and crops taller images with a center crop; LinkedIn behaves similarly. A tall, narrow screenshot will get its top and bottom sliced off in the preview, hiding exactly the content you wanted to show. Compose accordingly: keep the essential content centered, and don't put critical text near the edges.

Generous padding is your friend here — it guarantees margins survive any crop. If your screenshot is very tall (a full mobile screen, a long thread), consider cropping to the key section before beautifying rather than shrinking the whole thing to fit. One legible idea beats three illegible ones.

Pair the graphic with a real caption

The image stops the scroll; the caption closes the deal. Lead with the news in the first line — feeds truncate after a sentence or two — then let the screenshot carry the proof. "We just shipped offline mode" plus a beautiful shot of it working beats a paragraph of adjectives every time.

Add alt text describing the screenshot for accessibility and for the quiet SEO benefit; most people skip this, which is exactly why doing it stands out. And resist the urge to cram the announcement text into the image itself — the caption is searchable and readable, the image is the hook. Let each do its job.

One style for the whole launch thread

Launch announcements rarely fit in one post. When you're threading five screenshots — the hero, three features, the CTA — visual consistency is what makes the thread feel like a campaign instead of five random uploads. Same gradient family, same padding, same post-card header, five exports.

Save the combination that works and reuse it for every future announcement. Over time, followers start recognizing your cards before they read the handle — that's a visual brand, built one screenshot at a time, for free.

Frequently asked questions

Can I change the name and handle in the post mockup?▼

Yes — open the Social Mockup panel and edit the name, handle, and avatar URL fields. This page enables the header by default with placeholders; replace them with your own profile details before exporting.

Which platforms is this good for?▼

Any feed that shows image previews: X, LinkedIn, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky all expand attached images inline. The 16:9-ish composition guidance applies broadly — keep key content centered with generous padding and it'll survive every platform's cropping.

Does it post to X or LinkedIn for me?▼

No. The tool produces a PNG file that you download and attach to your post yourself. That keeps your accounts safe — nothing here ever asks for your social logins, which is exactly as it should be.

Should the screenshot show my real product or a mockup?▼

Your real product, always. Announcement graphics earn trust because they look like proof. A screenshot of the actual shipped feature, beautifully framed, outperforms a conceptual mockup — and it can't be accused of overselling.
