Creating Social Images is always a pain - I'm trying to ban Photoshop Templates out of my life!

Here is a short video of how it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTq1Gcb7uKo

Images are being created by my service over at placid.app, but you can manage templates right out of your WordPress backend (yes I cheated on that by i-framing the Editor into it - but still feels kinda good to me)

I'd love to hear what you think about my Idea in general, and if some WordPress heroes are here - then also about the obvious mistakes I made!

You can download and try the plugin for free here: https://placid.app/integrations/wordpress (at the bottom)

( I need the account for template saving/creating - but if someone likes to have a look without an account I can send a key! )

Wow, this is actually really useful
