Image Dimensions for the Website

As a general guideline, images for pages that are horizontally oriented (wider than long or
square) are 400 pixels in width if there is a lot of text around them and 300 pixels if there
isn’t much text to accompany an image on a page. If the image is vertical, 300 px width if
there is enough text, and 220 px width if not much text.



Home page banner images are 1400 px width x 400 px height.
For images in any of the image galleries, the largest dimension should be no bigger than 900
pixels. Otherwise user may have to scroll to see the whole image.
Blog post images are 950x450 pixels (they automatically shrink down for the home page
feed).
