   Every slide is cut from the middle to the same size and saved as a numbered JPG, together in a ZIP.

A carousel holds up to 20 photos and videos. The orientation you pick, square, portrait or landscape, applies to all of them; you can't give one slide a different shape.

The shapes are the ones Instagram uses for any post, from 1.91:1 to 3:4, shared at up to 1080 pixels wide:

• Portrait 4:5, 1080 × 1350.
• Portrait 3:4, 1080 × 1440: the tallest.
• Square 1:1, 1080 × 1080.
• Landscape 1.91:1, 1080 × 566: the widest.

The first slide is the one people see in their feed and on your profile, with dots below it for the rest. Start from its shape, then look at what the others lose.

A slide narrower than 1080 pixels once it's cropped is enlarged to fill the width and looks soft. Use a larger original for that slide, or pick a shape that crops less of it.

1080 pixels wide, all in one shape: 1080 × 1350 (4:5), 1080 × 1440 (3:4), 1080 × 1080 (1:1) or 1080 × 566 (1.91:1).

No. The orientation you pick applies to every photo and video in the post, and each is fitted to that frame. Crop them to one shape first and you choose what's kept.

Up to 20 photos and videos in one post.

So they sort in the order you picked them. Select them in that order when you post the carousel.

No. They're cropped in your browser and never leave your computer.
