Carousel Maker Hub

Carousel Maker — on-device swipe studio

Carousel Studio is the same local Canvas app as Collage Studio, switched to filmstrip mode. Photos sit in a row; dashed guides mark slide cuts; download is a ZIP of frames. Convertify4u never receives the files.

Carousel Studio natively accepts JPG/JPEG, PNG, WebP, and GIF images. For HEIC, BMP, TIFF, or AVIF, convert to PNG/JPG first, then return here to build your carousel.

A filmstrip, not a slide-deck SaaS

What the switch labeled Carousel actually does

Single mode tiles many pictures into one board. Carousel mode lays pictures in a horizontal strip whose CSS width is (slide width × slide count). Guides (hidden on export) show where html2canvas will slice. Each slice is 1080×1080, 1080×1350, or 1920×1080 CSS pixels, captured at 2×, then packed as slide-01.jpg (or .png) through slide-N in a ZIP. Slide count runs from 2 to 16. Native inputs are JPEG, PNG, WebP, and GIF. HEIC, BMP, TIFF, and AVIF still need a convert-first hop.

What this hub will not claim

There is no LinkedIn PDF exporter, no Ads Manager login, no prompt-to-illustration model, and no 9:16 Story preset. Instagram’s own post cap is ten frames even though the studio allows sixteen — trim before you upload or the app will refuse the extra. Type, charts, and brand kits belong in Canva or Keynote; this tab is photos with object-fit cover and per-frame focus pan. Filename branding on the free tier may alter the ZIP or file stem; it does not stamp a logo on the pixels.

How the spokes split the job

Free access, Instagram’s ten-frame rule, LinkedIn’s PDF habit, Facebook organic vs ads, product angles, teaching sequences, campaign structure, phones, a first-timer walkthrough, professional comparison, and an honest “AI” page each get their own article. Templates here are not the collage grid catalog — carousel mode does not show that strip. Use the collage hub if you needed one combined image instead of a swipe.

  1. 1

    Drop stills the tab can decode

    JPEG, PNG, WebP, or GIF. Convert HEIC first. Two photos minimum for a strip; sixteen is the ceiling.

  2. 2

    Turn on Carousel and set the box

    1:1 for most feeds, 4:5 for taller Instagram stills, 16:9 for wide frames. Match slide count to how many full-frame beats you have.

  3. 3

    Pan, then Save All (ZIP)

    Drag inside a pane so the subject survives the cover crop. Unzip and upload in filename order.

Use cases

Swipe posts

A sequence of full-frame photographs that should not be crushed into a single mosaic.

Product walks

Hero, back, detail, in-use — each as its own slide for a shopper who pinches to zoom.

Lesson-shaped sequences

One visual beat per frame. Add captions in the destination or in a type tool after.

Private client proofs

A ZIP of options that never sat in a public “your projects” cloud.

Problems we solve

Upload-first carousel sites

Many editors store every frame before you preview. This path keeps bitmaps in the tab.

PDF confusion

LinkedIn document posts want a PDF. We give you images. Combine them in Preview or a PDF printer if that is the surface.

Format surprises

iPhone HEIC will not decode until you convert. We link those tools instead of faking support.
