Profile Images

The Featured Image filed is where a person’s profile image needs to be uploaded. This image will automatically display in all galleries as well as a persons full profile. If no photo is uploaded, a generic Old Well image will display instead.

In the above screenshot from the Pathology directory, Dr. Curley and Dr. Dent have a Featured Image added to their profile but Shelby Currier does not.

Feature Image Specs

Feature images should be cropped to a 4 x 5 aspect ratio.  Cropping them to 400 pixels wide by 500 pixels tall format is ideal.

For consistency, try to crop all your headshots in a similar fashion, with the same amount of white space around the head and shoulders.
