Level Up Your Social Previews: New Custom OG Image Builder Arrives in ReadyTools Linksy

When someone shares your Linksy page on Twitter, LinkedIn, Discord, or in a newsletter, the first thing people see is your OG image — the 1200×630 preview that appears in their feed.

For years, most link-in-bio tools (including the previous version of Linksy) offered almost nothing here: just a handful of static backgrounds and a couple of basic text toggles. The result was almost always a generic, forgettable social preview.

Today we’re fixing that properly.

We’ve launched a complete custom OG Image Builder inside Linksy — a real design studio that lets you create professional, on-brand social preview images in just a few minutes. This is one of the most significant design upgrades we’ve shipped since the Hero Profile Frame and the free background crop tool.

From Limited Toggles to Full Creative Control

The old system was basic. You could pick from a few preset images and switch between display name, username, or bio. That was it.

The new OG Image Builder gives you serious design power:

• 8 professional layouts — Glass Card, Split Hero, Editorial, Poster, Side Avatar, Minimal, Classic and more. Each layout is optimized for different content styles and platforms.
• Advanced background system — 60+ beautiful preset SVGs, any solid color with a color picker, your own uploaded images, or images directly from your Vault.
• Precise image control — Zoom (up to 2.6×), pan, overlay strength, and Cover/Contain fit when using a photo background.
• Typography & branding tools — 9 font presets, full control over title and subtitle sources, show/hide avatar, and optional “Made with Linksy” watermark.
• Live 1200×630 canvas preview — See exactly how your image will look on social media in real time.
• Flexible output options — Save to Vault (replace current or keep both), use any public image URL, or download as high-quality JPG or PNG.

Everything is rendered with a high-quality canvas engine, so the final image looks sharp and intentional everywhere it appears.

Why This Matters

Your OG image is often the very first impression someone gets of your Linksy page. A strong, branded preview can meaningfully increase click-through rates when you share your page on social media.

With the new builder you can finally:

• Match your social preview perfectly to your brand
• Use your own photos or graphics instead of generic templates
• Create different versions for different audiences
• Look professional and consistent across every platform

It’s the difference between “just another link-in-bio” and “this person clearly cares about their brand.”

This Is a Premium Feature — With 7 Days Free

The new OG Image Builder is available exclusively to Plus and Max subscribers. We believe advanced branding and design tools like this belong in the paid plans, where they can deliver real value.

Good news: Every new ReadyTools account automatically receives 7 days of Plus for free, that you can activate at the pricing page. This means you can try the full OG Image Builder (along with all other premium features) right away.

If you already have an active Plus or Max subscription, the new builder is live in your Linksy Appearance settings today.

Part of Ongoing Improvements

This update continues the direction we’ve been taking with Linksy:

• We recently added the Hero Profile Frame
• Last week we released major analytics improvements
• A few days ago we launched the free background image crop tool
• Today we’re giving you professional-grade control over your social preview images

We’re systematically removing the limitations that prevent creators and businesses from building a truly premium presence with Linksy.
