Problem

The social preview image only shows our logo on a solid background. This is far too minimal and doesn’t tell much of a story of what our website or elementary OS is

Proposal

We should come up with a new social preview image that shows elementary OS running on a computer, maybe a few different computers like a desktop, laptop, and tablet like the StarLite? Something that gives an idea this has something to do with computers at least

Why not just a picture of 1200x768 (or alike, for UI elements to be legible) desktop with some windows open? Should be pretty self-explanatory that it is an OS

@1280px I think social preview images might get cropped for different aspect ratios in different social media platforms so it probably needs bleed area

Also for example corners are often rounded off so large parts of the desktop could be cut off and then it's just unclear if you're advertising or app or what this is
