Odd. Then yeah, it might just be Carrd not working with these "nested" SVG images. Maybe you could open a support ticket with them.
Did just that (as I run out of ideas). And AJ has already responded "Ah, looks like this SVG has encoded data (in this case encoded PNG data). Afraid we don't support SVGs that do this due to the potential security threat they can pose." So,.svg made of other images won't work with Carrd.
Ah, there you go! You could also have them all embedded and load them next to each other. But one big PNG is probably good enough.
Yea, that might be the way. I was going for .svg to get better quality and a lighter file but that seemingly won't work "p
Yeah, it looks like the SVG URL is 404ing. I see that there is a ?v= query at the end, do you control that? If so, I wonder if it's pointing to an old (or non-existent) version.
Not really. I guess Carrd adds it once I add the image. Still, the working .svg contains the same looking URL/directory.

Can you post a page that has "broken" SVGs and call them out? It will be a bit easier to debug that way.
Yea sure, twoxfootball.com contains the "news from" image in .png which works fine. Contrary, txf2.carrd.co/ has "news from" image in .svg and it doesn't show up.
@marc pointed out earlier that the image seems to be missing like Carrd shows it being uploaded but doesn't do it for real.

Here's where I landed with the "big bold text" theme. 😀
I really like this idea, nice work! I wish I knew about this a few weeks ago when I renewed my passport.
One thing that might help with conversion is having your main value a bit larger at the top of the page. For example, it took me a little longer than expected to figure out exactly what the service does. And now that I know I'm sold.
Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate the honesty. Also, congratulations on Tweet Photo getting acquired! (Great article by the way, I totally got distracted from writing this response and ended up subscribing to your newsletter.)
My very loose roadmap for Mugshot Bot is to offer a "free forever" plan that does exactly what the service does now. A single template, random colors, and the Mugshot branding. Then, add a paid plan that has multiple premium templates to choose from, removes the Mugshot branding, and adds custom brand colors.
I'm currently working on a "big bold text" template, so good to know that aligns with your needs! (see attachment)
I agree, $29/year is even a stretch for a single blog post (per year). I figured this is more of someone who blogs 2-3 times per month and really doesn't like futzing with design tools.
Here's to hoping I can find those bloggers soon! Do you have any recommendations for communities I could look into?

Thanks AJ! It looks like Twitter is working now, want to give it another try?
Every few months I sign up for the 7 day paid trial from ahrefs. It gives me a lot of insight into keywords, especially against competitions. The audit tool has also helped me recognize duplicate descriptions and titles that I wasn't aware of.
I would love to pay for the service all the time, but my SEO audits are rare and I can't justify the cost (yet).
