With Crosspostify’s Instagram Grid Maker, you can turn any image into a clean, high‑impact grid for your feed. Choose any layout from 1×1 to 20×20, adjust the crop with a real-time preview, and export high‑quality tiles in PNG or JPEG. Everything runs locally in your browser for speed and privacy.

Why create an Instagram grid?

Brand reveals and product drops: Tease a campaign or launch with a dramatic 3×3 reveal.
Portfolio storytelling: Highlight details from a hero photo across multiple tiles.
Campaign continuity: Keep your profile cohesive with planned sequences.
Event promotions: Build anticipation with a progressive grid before an event.

How to make an Instagram grid

Drop your photo in the uploader (JPG or PNG).
Pick the number of rows and columns (1–20 each).
Choose Fill (edge‑to‑edge crop) or Fit (full image with background color).
Drag to reposition and adjust the zoom until the composition is perfect.
Select PNG or JPEG, then click Generate Tiles.
Download all tiles as a ZIP, or click tiles individually to save one at a time.

Best practices for stunning grids

Plan the focal point: Keep key elements away from tile boundaries to avoid awkward cuts.
Mind the posting order: Post from bottom‑right to top‑left for a correct reveal.
Prefer high‑resolution sources: Start with sharp images to preserve detail across tiles.
Use Fit mode strategically: Add padding with your brand color when you need the full image visible.

Frequently asked questions

What grid sizes can I create?

You can create any grid from 1×1 to 20×20. Popular options are 3×3 (9‑grid), 3×2, 3×4, and 4×4 for square feeds.

Will my image be uploaded to a server?

No. The tool runs entirely in your browser. Your image never leaves your device.

PNG or JPEG — which should I choose?

PNG is lossless and great for graphics or text. JPEG is smaller and works well for photos. We use a sensible default JPEG quality for a sharp look without huge files.

What posting order should I follow?

Post tiles from bottom‑right to top‑left to assemble the full grid on your profile. Each tile shows an order number to help you keep track.

Can I adjust the background color?

Yes. In Fit mode you can choose any background color (e.g., your brand color). In Fill mode, we crop edge‑to‑edge for a seamless look.

Is there a watermark or usage limit?

No watermark. No login required. Create as many grids as you need, free of charge.
