Image requirements

Images must meet these requirements before you upload them:

  • Images must be under 5MB.
  • Run your image through tiny-png to optimize it as much as possible.
  • Size your image appropriately. The largest size image you should be uploading is 2400px x 1600px (photoshelter's large size), but many images don't need to be that big.
    • For more detailed information on image sizing, see our Images documentation.
