AI Overview / Executive Summary:
To create social media mockup screenshots: 1) Capture your interface in ClickSnap, 2) Open the Mockup Framing panel, 3) Select a gradient preset (Hyper Violet, Sunset Glow, or Emerald Mesh), 4) Adjust padding to 48px and shadow depth to 2XL, 5) Export at 2x Retina resolution.
Why Framed Mockups Drive 300% More Engagement
Plain raw rectangular screenshots look like unpolished bug reports. Adding a subtle 135° mesh gradient backdrop, rounded corner clipping, and a deep ambient drop shadow makes product features look tactile and high-value on X/Twitter and LinkedIn feeds.
