One image rarely fits every social placement. A square post, portrait story, thumbnail, and header each reveal different parts of the original.
Start with the outcome you need
Choose the platform and preset before framing the crop. This makes the important subject visible in the final shape rather than only in the original photo.
Make the important choice before exporting
