Tips for VK Collages

Square works everywhere. When in doubt — choose square 1:1 format. It looks equally good in the feed, when opened full size, and when forwarded in a messenger.

Use vertical photos for Stories. Horizontal shots in 9:16 format get cropped on the sides. Use portrait frames or crop horizontal shots in the editor.

JPG is the standard for VK. The platform re-encodes all images on upload. Export as JPG — you don't need Print quality; choose Web or HD.
