Dimensions, typography, and contrast rules for 1200×630 cards that look sharp everywhere.
OG images are your ad on every link share. Most are blurry, off-brand, or unreadable at thumbnail size.
Dimensions
1200×630 is the standard. Safe zone: keep text and logos inside the center 80% — platforms crop edges.
Typography
Large, high-contrast titles. Two lines max. If it doesn't read at 200px wide, rewrite it.
Contrast
Test on both light and dark Twitter/X backgrounds. Semi-transparent overlays behind text help.
Tools
We built our OG generator because we hit this problem weekly — FLUX backgrounds + crisp Satori text, composited server-side.
