Requirements for all Event Images

These image guidelines apply to all events submitted to events.fredonia.edu:

  • Every event submitted on events.fredonia.edu must have a high-quality, 2000-pixel wide by 1500-pixel tall image.

  • All event images should be relevant and clearly representative of that event.

  • All event images must be cropped to a 4:3 horizontal crop at 2000 pixels wide x 1500 pixels tall.

  • Do not use a poster for an event image.

    • The text on posters does not translate well for event images.

    • Instead of a poster image, please use an 2000px by 1500px image from one of the Sources for an Event Image, listed below.

  • It must not be a copyright image. Do NOT just Google an image, as this may result in an image copyright violation when posting a Googled Google-sourced image to the public campus calendar on Localist. See Sources for an Events Image, below.

  • All primary important content & composition should work well within the center 1500 x 1500 square of the photo.

  • Only secondary visual info should appear in the left and right 250px edges of the image. Here are some example 4:3 Event Images with the sides grayed out to show the center 1:1 image composition that is needed for Localist and in the BLUEview Network.
