Can someone suggest something that takes up more of the image + captures the various facets of FreeCAD ?

Like it. Just the picture with the wheel rim and the 2 aside are gray colored, which makes it a bit disturbing for the eye.
Would it be possible that you remap the picture order to try this : 1-3-2-4-6-5-7-8? Thx. ;)

I like where this is going!
I would be curious to see how openBrain's vision would look materialized. The red color of the frame 2 from left of the FEM analysis is a abrupt color transition. It would be cool if the image frames were mapped according to a color spectrum of a sort.

I would also add a subtle drop shadow after every image stop to give it a sense of distinction. Just my 2 cents :D . I really like the concept of the image

It is abrupt, but i feel it is necessary to show a more complete spectrum of FreeCAD workbenches. But, I did a better arrange of color tones. also, I did a option with some effect at the borders:

Thank you. This image fills my heart with joy. But PLEASE do a variant with the effect only on the lower part of the image. I think that it would look allot better in the context of Twitter header. Cheers.
