What size image should I upload in the Localist calendar?
Try to use photos 1200 X 800px or larger. The bare minimum photo size is 940 x 557px, but photo uploads should be treated like Facebook: the bigger, the better. Especially with a new Localist theme and larger image displays being the norm.
Also, please note:
- Rectangular photos will translate better than square photos in Localist.
- Use non-text-heavy images. (The titles, dates, and times of the events should NOT be listed in the image.)
- If you must use text-heavy photos, aim for the text to be as close to the center of the image as possible.
- Aim for photos without too much white space for a better end-look.
