all 9 samples — three readings, three styles ↓
A story background has to leave room for the caption or screenshot on top of it. These nine are built that way: a gradient wash, a soft check pattern and a terrazzo scatter, each in a pastel, night or paper mood — phone-tall, tileable, with the middle band left quiet. Download the background, or ask for a different texture.
- an Instagram or TikTok story backdrop
- a phone wallpaper
- a quote-card background behind text
- a consistent look across a week of stories
Frequently asked questions
- What size does the background export at?
- Each design renders at 768 by 1344 pixels, the same 9:16 phone-tall ratio as a story or a typical phone wallpaper.
- Is the middle really clear enough for text?
- Yes — every style keeps the middle band calm and low-contrast by design, so a caption, sticker or screenshot sits on it cleanly.
- Can I get a different texture, like a watercolor wash?
- Yes — type it into the direction field and the background is redrawn in the same three moods.
About toile
This page is a showcase: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each one shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Toile has no generation wired to this page yet — nothing here is made to order, and there is no account, no upload, nothing to buy. What you see is what exists. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
