Preparing Images
- Refer to the CMS Image Sizes web page for specific dimensions before preparing and uploading images.
- Remember to name all image files using lowercase letters and/or numbers separated
by hyphens only — do not use special characters.
- For example: feature-commencement.jpg
- Open the image in Photoshop, or a similar image-editing program.
- i.e. Canva, Mac Preview, or Windows QuickLook.
- Change the image’s resolution to be 72 ppi.
- Crop the image to the correct dimensions.
- Save the image as a JPG, JPEG, or PNG using "Save for Web" for optimization.
- Adjust the quality slider and aim to reduce the image’s file size while maintaining graphic quality.
- Upload all images to the site's images folder prior to inserting them into a Snippet.
- Save your changes.
- Click Publish.
Uploading Images
- Images should be uploaded to the unit's specific images folder — either the unit's
root folder (i.e. /business/images) or a folder within the unit's root folder (i.e.
/business/entrepreneurship/images).
- Images should not be uploaded to the root images folder (/images).
- Images uploaded here will be deleted quarterly.
- Images uploaded here will be deleted quarterly.
- Images should not be uploaded to the root images folder (/images).
- Click on your unit’s images folder.
- From Staging, drag and drop files onto the browser window or click the Upload button.
- If using the Upload button, click Add Files to browse to the image(s) you would like to upload or drag and drop the file(s) from your computer onto the Upload window.
- Click Start Upload. Images will appear and function as .pcf files in Staging.*
- Once the file is uploaded, publish the file to both Test and/or Production.
- *Please note: This is an updated process. To view/select images uploaded prior to the Septemeber 2022 upgrade, you will still need to click over to Test or Production. Those images will not have a tag number associated with them.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
I added an image to an Image Snippet and I'm not seeing it on my page. Am I missing something?
New images that have been uploaded, but not published, will not show up on the screen
after you have saved your .pcf file. This is because the CMS defaults to viewing a
preview of what the page will look like on Production.
Option 1
Make sure you publish your image(s) before you start to edit (recommended).
Option 2
Once you save your file, click "Preview" and select "Staging" from the upper right dropdown menu. Keep in mind that you will still need to publish your image(s) or they won't show
up on your website. Publishing your text page does not automatically publish your
image(s).
