Free social media post maker
MyCanvasDesign's social media post maker lets you design posts for Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, X and more in one place: start from a ready size or type in any other, then download a PNG or JPG. It's free, with no sign-up and no watermark.
Each network wants a slightly different shape. Rather than cropping one picture to fit them all, design at the right size for each, from the same fonts, colours and photos.
How to make a social media post in MyCanvasDesign
Pick the size
Start square at 1080 × 1080 px, which works on every network, or type in the size listed below for the one you are posting to.
Add your message
Write one clear line, add a photo or icons, and use your brand colours with the colour picker.
Download, then make the next one
Export a PNG or JPG. For another network, duplicate the design on the dashboard, change the page size in the properties panel and move things to fit.

Ready sizes open with one click. The others are common sizes to type in as your own.
