# The Latest Update to the Steemit Social Media Platform has Brought Us a Gift. # I have been asking patiently since September for large summary Twitter cards for the Steemit platform. I believe that large summary Twitter cards will give the community one extra advantage in our battle for attention across the web. Twitter is like a fire hose of information. Large summary Twitter cards take up much more real estate on Twitter. Approximately 3X more! ## A Few Examples of the First Tweets by Steemit users @StephenKendal and @Karenb54. ##

## This Makes My Work Easier! ## For those that do not know I have been manually setting up Tweets for the [Official Steemit Twitter](https://twitter.com/Steemit) account. This included downloading your images and uploading them to Buffer. This was a time intensive process. Now that the link itself will show up with the large image it really makes my life and your easier. ## The Optimum Size for an Image on Large Summary Twitter Cards is 600 x 321 (1.867:1 ratio) ## Now this does not mean you have to use the exact size 600 x 321. Just use the ratio. Personally I keep it simple and make my cover images 900 x 450 or 800 x 400 exactly half. It works fine and is simple. ## When You See This Gif Your Content is In the Pipeline to Be Tweeted. ##
