One post, five ways to lay it out
A carousel is a set of slides that read in order, so the layout decides whether it feels like a lesson, a story or a magazine. SocialKit draws the same content five different ways and lets you switch with one tap, so you can see which suits your post before you download anything.
Every layout is drawn from the same slides. An edit you make in one layout shows up in all of them, and your brand colours and type apply across every layout.
Choose the layout that fits your post
- Step 1
Bold type
Big headlines on solid colour with a numbered tip on each slide and a progress bar. The classic swipe post, and the best all-rounder.
- Step 2
Photo led
Your photos full-bleed with the text over them. Best for a personal story or anything that depends on a picture.
- Step 3
Notes
A clean checklist look, one tick per step. Best for tips, how-tos and anything someone will want to save and follow.
- Step 4
Editorial
Magazine pages: an image on top, a serif story below. Best for a more polished, considered feel.
- Step 5
Seamless
One design that flows across every slide, so the picture carries you as you swipe. Best for a single striking idea.
What every layout exports
| Slide size | 1080 x 1350 pixels (4:5 portrait) |
|---|---|
| File type | PNG, one file per slide, in a zip |
| Brand | Six colour sets and five type styles, plus your handle |
| Editing | Headlines, text, order, visibility, photos, memes and the caption |
| Memes | Chosen from a licensed library by what each slide says, and swappable |
| Account | None needed |
Getting more from a carousel
- Write the first slide last. Once you know where the story ends, the hook is easier to write.
- Try two layouts before you decide. The same content can feel very different.
- Hide a slide that repeats an idea. A shorter carousel is easier to finish.
- Use the last slide to ask something specific, so people have a reason to comment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about formats, specs, and how it works.
01What is a carousel post?
A single post made of several slides that people swipe through. Instagram popularised it, and the same slides also work as a multi-photo post elsewhere.
02Which layout should I pick?
Bold type suits most posts, Notes suits tips and how-tos, Photo led suits a story, Editorial suits a polished feel and Seamless suits one big idea. You can switch in one tap and compare.
03Can I change the words?
Yes. Every headline and line of text is editable, you can reorder, hide or duplicate slides, and the caption is editable too.
04What sizes do the slides come in?
All layouts export at 1080 by 1350 pixels, a 4:5 portrait ratio.
05Can I use my own pictures?
Yes. Photos are optional, they are used exactly as they are, and you choose the slide for each.
