CMS Template Image Sizes

This page gives site editors a comprehensive guide to all image sizes inside our CMS templates. As you begin sizing and uploading images into your site please keep in mind:

  • Each image size is measured in pixels (px) width x height.
  • Regardless of image size, be sure to always keep aspect ratios in tact.
  • Uploaded images should be 72 dpi for optimal web resolution.
  • All image sizes are preset by name in the photo database to allow for fast and easy sizing.
  • Each image size can also be found in the red helper text of the snippet, component or property. 

Images in site contact information

Every CMS site has site-level contact information located at the bottom of the pages. This can be either the same contact information across your entire site, or custom contact information applied to individual pages. The contact section on all sites have a pre-loaded logo image and text information about UW's R1 status from the Carnegie Classifications of Institutions in Higher Education. If you want to use your department's logo or other badge images instead, then you can change this by editing your site's contact-images.pcf file located inside your site's _files/_includes folder. 

If you wish to use your department's logo, then please use only an approved version of the UW logos.

To change the contact information image:

  • Use .png format for image/badge files.
  • Follow the helper text image size inside the Contact Images & Info component. The recommended image size is 75 x 92 px.
  • Images cannot be linked due to accessibility limitations.
  • Multiple images can be added. We recommend no more than three (3) for optimal display on mobile devices.
