Which style for which post
| Style | Looks like | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| Image and waveform | Your image with a moving waveform near the bottom | Podcast clips and song previews |
| Image only | A still image for the length of the audio | Full episodes and uploads where motion is not needed |
| Waveform only | A white waveform on black | Quick audiograms with no artwork |

A waveform shows sound; a face speaking holds attention differently. Audio driven lip sync animates a photo of the host to the same audio file, which is a different tool: see the call to action below.
