Adding Images and Optimization

Standard Image Sizes

  • Slider Images: 1200 x 600px @72dpi.
  • Background Images: 1200 x 600px (previously 1500 X 750px @ 72dpi).
  • Posts / News Stories featured images: 1200 x 600px @ 72dpi.
  • Posts / News Stories square images: 600 x 600px @ 72dpi.

Image Optimization

It is a best practice to optimize images before uploading them to the site.

  • Utilize the “Save for Web” option in Photoshop if possible. This will give a base level image that can be used in your website.
  • In addition we recommend optimizing images further utilizing a free service such as TinyPNG (https://tinypng.com). TinyPNG is a free web-based service that can remove up to 60% of the overall image file size, and extraneous image data.
