Landscape, Portrait, rectangle, square, whatever.

I mean, you do realize that people are reading these in Tweet-feed readers, right? It's not like they're going to see the entire image, no matter WHAT you do, without clicking on it anyway. Or, if they use a program like Hootsuite on the web, doing a hover-over.

I don't know the "how." I don't write web-apps, I'm busy enough doing my own thing. I just know it works. And saves an ENORMOUS amount of time over doing all that copy, trim, save, paste, yadda-yadda. Just put the image URL, itself (make sure you FIND the actual image url) into the shortener, and there you go.

Thanks, Hitch. I used HS a long time ago but never with adding photos. I'll re-visit it. Really appreciate all the help!
