Designing & Optimizing Preview Images for Social Media Sharing

ByReid Walley

Three examples of Bitcoin t-shirt “preview” images for when WooCommerce products are shared on social media. Yoast SEO‘s WordPress plugin makes these images easy to attach to each product.

Model t-shirt mockups (with transparent background) generated with Printful‘s Design Maker. Layout using Affinity Designer. Final designs exported from Affinity Designer to JPEG format with Quality set to 100/Progressive. Then, exported JPEGs converted to WebP format using EZGIFcom‘s JPG to WebP converter.

Affinity Designer v2 now has a direct export to WebP (which I need to try out instead of using EZGIF.com).

ByReid Walley

Direct-to-garment (DTG) printing alert for semi-transparent artwork on dark colored tees.
