Creating images for the JFP website

Image File Types and Optimization:

• Most images should be saved as JPG files to ensure detailed colors and smaller file sizes.

• For images requiring a transparent background, save them as PNG files.

• Always "optimize for web" when saving any image.

Aspect Ratios and Sizing:

• General Horizontal Images: A 16:9 aspect ratio is preferred for most horizontal images, matching our movie clips. You can verify your cropping at https://aspectratiocalculator.com/16-9.html.

• Full-length "Hero" banner image (main page): Typically 1920 x 1080 pixels. The web team can overlay text and darken the opacity of the image as needed.

• Other horizontal images on webpages: Usually 700 x 394 pixels.

• DevCard Image (main page): Typically 393 x 516 pixels (portrait layout). This image will need to be darkened to ensure text copy is visible.

• Blog Post Images: Currently 1200 x 627 pixels.

• Leader Portrait Images (see "Team" page): 1240 x 1560 pixels.
