What is the Announcement Template?

The Announcement template is designed to create maximum impact when you share something new. A vertical gradient (180-degree, top to bottom) from your accent color to a lighter variant fills the entire background.

Above the title, an "Introducing" label in 18px uppercase with wide letter-spacing (0.15em) creates anticipation. The title itself is the largest in the OGPixel set at 56px, 800 weight — demanding attention in any social feed.

A dot grid pattern (radial gradient with 1px dots, 30px spacing) adds subtle texture without distracting from the text. This pattern is a common design element in modern launch pages and product hunt announcements.

Customization Guide

Accent Color: Since this is a high-energy template, go bold. Red (#ef4444) creates urgency. Orange (#f59e0b) feels exciting. Blue (#3b82f6) is professional but still impactful.

Title:Keep it short and punchy. This template works best with 2-4 word titles like "OGPixel 2.0" or "We Just Launched" or your product name.

Subtitle:Use it for the one-liner that explains what you're announcing. This is where the value proposition goes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I change the "Introducing" text?

No, "Introducing" is fixed as part of the template design. It creates the anticipation and context for an announcement. If you don't need it, try the Bold Gradient template instead.

What color works best for launches?

Red and orange create the most urgency and excitement. For a more professional/corporate launch, blue or indigo work well. Avoid muted colors — this template is designed for high energy.

Is this good for Product Hunt launches?

Yes. The announcement style matches the visual language of successful Product Hunt posts. Pair it with a clear, short product name in the title field for maximum impact.

Can I use this for non-launch content?

Technically yes, but the "Introducing" label makes it specifically suited for new things. For evergreen content, use Minimal Dark or Split Card instead.
