# Make a dark mode tweet image

X has two dark themes, not one. Dim is the navy blue palette built on #15202b, and Lights Out is true black on #000000. Most tweet screenshot tools only offer a single generic dark grey, which is why their output never quite matches a real screenshot.

## How it works

1. Paste the link to the post.
1. Keep the dark theme and the pure black background.
1. Adjust the padding so the card has room to breathe.
1. Download the PNG.

## Settings on this page

| Setting | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Format | PNG |
| Aspect ratio | auto |
| Theme | dark |
| Background | solid |
| Background colour | #000000 |
| Padding | 56px |
| Scale | 3x |

Both are here with the exact background, text and border colours X uses, so a rendered card is indistinguishable from one captured on a dark-mode device. True black is the better pick for OLED screens and for anything that will sit on a dark background.


## Questions

### What is the difference between Dim and Lights Out?

Dim is a navy palette on #15202b with softer contrast. Lights Out is pure black on #000000, which looks best on OLED displays.

### What are the exact X dark mode colours?

Dim uses #15202b background with #f7f9f9 text. Lights Out uses #000000 with #e7e9ea text and #2f3336 borders.

### Can I get a dark card even if my own X theme is light?

Yes. The theme here is a render setting, independent of how X is configured on your device.
