Built overnight 2026-09-08 on Dave's standing go. The answer to the flag on the formats page: the text cards laid out again for 9:16 instead of staged. Type is sized for a phone held at arm's length, the content sits inside the 300 pixel safe zones top and bottom, and only the figure and the watermark run into them. Eleven cards: seven text, four photo-ground, covering the five archetypes.
Revision 5. Tag buttons on the photo cards are back to left-aligned under the centered lockup. On the text cards the county and date line now sits at the very top with the lockup beneath it; the comparison below shows the other order. Earlier: The header moved up and centers on the card, lockup and the line under it, on every story; the list card's call-to-action centers too. Earlier in revision 3: The lockup runs nearly full width with the tag under it, the footer sits lower with the phone number at 50px and a call-to-action line under it, and the ring and figure tightened up to the name. Every story card is a real 9:16 layout, photo grounds included. Still not sent to Brett. The bottom safe zone reads empty on the list card by design; on a phone that band is under the reply bar.
The call: eyebrow above or below the lockup
