Board Cover Maker
Build a square board cover — Pinterest displays it cropped to a circle, so keep key content centered.
Designing this as a square and then having Pinterest crop it to a circle is the reverse of how most people expect it to work — content placed near the square's corners gets cut off entirely once the circular mask is applied, which is exactly why the safe zone here pulls in evenly from all four sides rather than just protecting one edge like a typical banner does.

Start from a pin where the subject already sits close to center — a pin's natural focal point rarely lines up with the exact center of its original frame, so this saves a re-centering step later.

Keep anything important inside the safe-zone guide, not just inside the square canvas — the corners are exactly what the circular mask removes.

Preview it small once exported — a board cover shows up tiny in a profile's board row, smaller than it appears while designing at full size here.
