Steps

  1. Export the final social image file from the design tool, CMS, ecommerce system, or publishing app.
  2. Confirm the target surface before judging the file: Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Open Graph, ecommerce, creator marketplace, or broad social reuse.
  3. Check width, height, aspect ratio, file size, and format.
  4. Check crop-sensitive surfaces: feed preview, grid crop, cover crop, profile overlap, link preview crop, or product thumbnail crop.
  5. Route the image to the most specific ImageSizeKit guide when it fails the broad social check.

Common Failure Pattern

The image is exported at a technically valid size, but the publishing surface is not clear. A square post, vertical story, wide banner, product image, and Open Graph card can all be “social images” while needing different ratios, crop rules, and next checks.

Pick the target surface first. Then validate the exported file against that route.
