Heading  / Text Usage

  • For ordinary text use the paragraph format.
  • Each page heading has a Heading 1  format.
  • For subheadings use  Heading 2 and for headings within a Heading 2 section use Heading 3.

 

PDF / Documents Usage / Uploading

  • These items cannot be any bigger than 2 Megabytes (MB).
  • The website has a built in maximum file upload size of 2 Megabytes (MB).  This stops huge files from being uploaded.

 

Image Usage / Uploading

Images need to be of an appropriate size for the website. Guidelines for images include:

  • NEVER, EVER, use an image straight out of a digital camera.  The images from a digital camera are designed to be printed and can be huge in both size and dimension.  All images from a digital camera need to be optimised before use on both a website and a document, particularly when creating a PDF.
  • The website has a built in maximum file upload size of 2 Megabytes (MB).  This stops huge files from being uploaded. 

 

Home Page Usage

Maximum width is to be 960 pixels (px).

 

All Other Pages

Maximum width is to be 600 pixels (px), this will take up the entire width of the column.  Smaller sizes would be better.

 

Image Optimisation

It is VERY important that images are optimised for web-based use.  Sign up to Aviary.com (the free plan).  This allows you to manipulate images to get the correct sizing.
