As photographers the most important part of your website is your images. You want to make sure they shine and look their best. This article will tell you the best way to prepare your images for your website template.
To start with all the templates have different requirements.
Standard and Mini Templates:
The standard and mini templates have fixed sizes on the images. This means if you import an image that is bigger then the editor accepts the editor will automatically reszie the image. So if you cropped your image in photoshop your image will be downsized again, which can result in pixelation.
The best practice is to start with the full resolution image and then crop your images to the editor size. All sizes are also listed on the batch import button as well and are at 72DPI.
Mini Editors:
Note the Mini editor resize your images when imported. For best results we always recommend you start with a full resolution image and crop it to the maximum size the editor will accept. You can also see the pixel size when you click on batch import to the editor.
