One Title. Every Size.
You remake the same Sunday graphic five times. Paste the title once and get every size matching.
You already made the Sunday graphic. That is not the long part.
The long part is making it again for the stage screen. Then again for Instagram. Then again for Stories. Then again for the Facebook cover. Then again for the lower third, because the stream graphic cannot have the title baked in where ProPresenter needs to overlay it.
Five files. One sentence. If you are doing that by hand, you are not designing. You are stretching, cropping, and hoping the title still sits in the right place.
Paste the title once. Get every size matching.
The work is the remake, not the idea
A 16:9 stage still is the wrong starting crop for a 9:16 story. Scale it up and the title hugs the username at the top or dies under the swipe UI at the bottom. Crop a story down to a Facebook cover and you get a thin strip with no words left in the safe middle. Duplicate the square for Instagram's tall feed and you either letterbox it or you re-layout the type.
That is why Saturday gets late after the "main" graphic is done. The main graphic is one size. Sunday needs a set.
Josh Carter, lead pastor at Union Culture Church in Wendell, NC, put the time cost in plain language:
Church Graphics has been a game changer for our team. In just one week, it saved our volunteer creative director over 10 hours on event and social media graphics while still helping us keep a strong, cohesive visual identity as a church.
Ten hours is not "we finally found a prettier template." Ten hours is the volunteer who was rebuilding the same title in five canvases, every week, and still trying to make them look like one church.
Matching means the same series, not a stretched JPEG
Matching is not export-as and hope.
Matching means the stage screen, the feed post, the story, the cover, and the lower third all feel like the same Sunday. Same type family. Same color. Same photo or texture. The title in a place that actually works in that frame.
What usually breaks:
- Stage / screens (16:9). Title has to read from the back row. Too much decoration and you lose the words. Too little contrast and the lyrics or a camera shot will wash it out.
- Instagram feed. Square still works. The feed now prefers a taller 4:5 portrait, so a leftover square from 2019 gives up space on the phone. If you cite pixels, use the current sheet — we keep one here. The job in this post is not the spec. It is not rebuilding the type for that spec by hand.
- Stories (9:16). Full-bleed phone. The title wants the middle of the frame, not the top of a widescreen leftover.
- Facebook cover. A wide, short banner. Product output is about 2.75:1, which is the same family as Facebook's own fast-load cover shape. Desktop and phone crop it differently, so the title belongs in the center, not in the corners.
- Lower third. This one should not repeat the title as a poster. You need a blank bar in the same look so ProPresenter (or your switcher) can sit a name, a verse, or a lower-third title on top.
If those five do not match, people do not think "creative choice." They think two different churches ran the same weekend.
Paste the title once
Church Graphics is built around one line of copy.
You type the title. What you type is what shows up on the graphic. Then you generate. The project is supposed to come back as a pack, not as one hero you will babysit in Canva.
On the site, that pack is five sizes from one title, same series look:
- Screens and slides
- 9:16 (Stories / vertical)
- 1:1 Instagram feed
- Facebook cover (2.75:1)
- Lower third at 7:1, no text
That last one matters. A lower third with the series title already locked into the bar is a fight with your operator. A blank lower third in the same color and texture is something you can actually use live.
You do not need a screenshot of a five-up export to understand the move. You have made this pack by hand. You know the moment the square looks fine and the story looks like a cropped mistake. The fix is to stop doing the five-up yourself.
How the size move actually works
Think in frames, not in "resize."
Stage to Stories. The widescreen image is a landscape. The story is a door. You cannot "fit" a landscape into a door without choosing what survives. A matching story rebuilds the layout: title in the vertical center, photo or texture filling the phone, nothing important in the chrome.
Stage to square feed. You lose the sides or you add dead space. A matching square is a new composition of the same look, not the middle 1080 pixels of the screen graphic.
Stage to Facebook cover. You keep a thin band. If the title was sitting in the lower left of the stage graphic, the cover will crop it into the profile photo or off the mobile view. Center the words. Let the edges be atmosphere.
Any of those to lower third. Throw away the poster. Keep the look. Leave the type off.
That is the work a tool should do after you paste the title. If you are still doing it in five Canva files, you will keep losing the hour after the design is "done."
What not to do this week
Do not make the stage graphic and screenshot it from ProPresenter for Instagram. It will look like a screenshot.
Do not run one square through a resizer and upload the blurry result as a story.
Do not skip the cover because "we'll just use a photo of the auditorium." The cover is the first thing a guest sees if they find you on Facebook. It should belong to the same Sunday as the screen.
Do not bake the sermon title into the lower third PNG and then ask production to hide it. Generate the blank.
Pixel sizes change. We already keep a reference sheet for Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and church-specific crops. As of late August 2026, Instagram's recommended feed portrait is still 4:5 and Stories are still 9:16. None of that is a reason to remake the title five times. It is a reason to generate the set.
Ship the pack
Open the app. Paste the title. Generate. Download the sizes you will actually post this week — screen, feed, story, cover, lower third.
Look at them next to each other on your laptop before you upload. If one crop ate the words, fix that file. Do not start a new look.
The guest who sees the story on Saturday and the screen on Sunday should not have to squint to tell it is the same series. One title. Every size.
