The side-by-side layout places two photos next to each other across the top of the pin, with a title panel running beneath them. Putting the images at equal size makes the comparison obvious in a single glance, which is what you want when the difference between the two is the whole point of the post and nothing else should distract from it. Equal tiles make that comparison fair, and the panel keeps the explanation short and clear.

It fits makeovers, transformations, product comparisons, and this-or-that posts. The panel gives the headline a clean, solid background, so the title stays readable. Because both photos share the same row, matching their crops and framing is the key to making the pair feel honest and easy to compare. Take a moment to align both before you download. Zoom each one until the subjects match in size.
The two images sit next to each other at the same width. Click either one in the preview to drag it and zoom it with the corner handles or slider. Adjust both until the subject has the same scale and position in each tile, so the comparison reads clearly to someone scrolling quickly.
Below the photos, a solid panel in your band color holds the title. The bold uppercase text is auto-sized to fit, and your own line breaks are kept. Words like before and after can be highlighted in the accent color to guide the eye across the pair.
The accent color emphasizes chosen words, and a leading number is picked up automatically. In a comparison, highlight the claim that matters, such as the time, the cost, or the change itself. Pick an accent that contrasts well with the panel color.
The photo dim setting darkens both images evenly. Use it only to bring two shots to a similar brightness when the lighting differs. A subtle adjustment helps a before and after feel like a fair pairing instead of two unrelated photos.
The most convincing comparison uses the same angle, distance, and framing. If the originals do not match perfectly, use the drag and zoom controls to align shared landmarks, such as a window, a doorway, or the horizon line, so the two tiles line up when viewed together. Matching the scale of the subject matters more than matching the exact crop. Small corrections here make the pair far easier to trust.
A title that states the change gives the pin meaning before anyone looks closely. Include a number or a time frame when you have one, such as how many days, dollars, or steps it took. Short lines let the type stay large on a phone screen, and a specific claim is more believable than a vague one. Numbers, dates, and costs make the change feel real.
If one photo is much brighter than the other, the eye goes straight to it and the comparison tilts. Use the photo dim control to pull the two closer together. Keep the adjustment small so the real difference between them is still obvious, since the goal is fairness rather than polish. If the lighting differs wildly, a different photo may serve you better.
Since the photos are the proof, keep the panel simple. A deep teal, navy, or charcoal with a white title and one accent highlight works well. A neutral panel makes the colors in both photos look better, which helps the transformation stand out. Save the bright accent for the one phrase you most want noticed. Too many competing colors will pull attention away from the photos themselves.
When the two tiles show different viewpoints, viewers cannot tell what actually changed. Re-crop so the same objects sit in the same places, or choose another pair of photos that shows the change more directly. A fair comparison builds trust.
Without cues, people may not know which photo is first. Put the order in the title, with wording like before and after or old and new, and highlight it so no one has to guess. The left-to-right reading order then does the rest.
Three or more photos squeezed into this layout shrink the details that make a comparison useful. If the post has several stages, switch to the collage layout, which holds up to six photos around a central title band. Each stage then gets its own tile.
Click each photo in the preview, then drag and zoom until a shared landmark, such as a window or a doorway, sits in the same spot in both tiles. The corner handles and the slider both control zoom, so use whichever feels easier to control.
Labels live in the title, not on the photos. Put the words in your headline and highlight them with the accent color. The photos read left to right, so the first photo is the before and the second is the after.
No. Any pair works, such as two product options, a budget and a splurge, or summer and winter versions of the same space. Anywhere the comparison between two images is the message, this layout fits. Keep both photos similar in framing.
