Basic standards

• For the website, we use photos taken by WSB's professional photographer or UW's professional photographers. You can view those images on the Photo Shelter accounts: WSB Photo Shelter, UW Photo Shelter.
• Partners may submit other images for consideration, but we might not accept them if they do not meet our standards. We require original, in color, and uncropped images in JPEG format. They must fit in with the school's brand and tone standards. Do not pull images from social media. Approximate dimensions of 2400px width by 1600px height are required.

Detailed standards

• Photos must be at least 2400px in width. This the standard Photo Shelter "large" size. (The height may vary slightly. UW's ratio puts the height at 1597px for large and WSB's ratio puts it at 1661px for large.)
  
• If the photo is going to be used in a circle on the web, then it must be cropped to a square. Take the Photo Shelter "large" size and crop it to the largest square you can.
• Always Export for Web when using Adobe.

Process for Acquiring Images

• For designers sourcing photos for the website, share the link to the Photo Shelter page with the web developer / make a lightbox and send the link to the developer.
• Web developer, download the large size from the Photo Shelter link and then upload it to WordPress.
• If the photo is not in Photo Shelter yet or is one that needed to be cropped to a square, please upload the photo to the proper folder (based on what page it's going on) in the Images folder in the Assets folder of the MSC Web Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1KMnVunAwjqtJrZG8y_d4Vy--1R2aYkm-?usp=sharing MSC Web → Design/Visual → Assets → Images

Adding Images to WordPress

• Upload all images to the correct folder in the Media library. Folder structure mirrors page structure.
• Do not change the name of the image file because we want to be consistent with what the designers/photographers use.
