Profile Preview
A quick mockup of how your profile pic, bio, and grid come together.

The 3×3 grid is a square 1:1 crop of whatever you upload — a portrait or landscape photo posted without cropping first will get squeezed into that square by Instagram's own feed, not just in this preview. Checking the grid as a set also surfaces color or tone clashes between adjacent photos that are easy to miss when reviewing images one at a time.
This nine-photo grid roughly matches what a new visitor actually sees before scrolling further on a profile, which makes it a reasonable stand-in for "first impression" — worth revisiting after each new post to check the newest addition doesn't clash visually with what's already there, rather than only checking new photos in isolation.
