To prepare the eCard images

Note: You need to create a full-sized version and a thumbnail version for all the eCard images.

  1. Create the eCard full-sized images. Edit a series of images in any image-editing software that allows you to save Web-ready images, such as Photoshop. It is recommended that you use the same, Web-friendly size for all of your images. For example, you can set them to be no larger than 650 by 650 pixels and 72 pixels per inch.

  2. Create the eCard thumbnails.

    • Save thumbnail versions of each full-sized image.

    • Make the thumbnails identical or nearly identical to each other in size and aspect-ratio.

    • Name each thumbnail consistently with its associated full-sized eCard image. For example, the full-sized image may be monument-ecard.jpg, while its associated thumbnail is monument-thumb.jpg.

    • Create a unique folder for your site's thumbnail images, such as /ecards/thumbnails/.

    • Upload the thumbnail images to the new folder immediately, as the base content type, Image.

    Note: You do not have to create a unique content type for thumbnails as it is for the full-sized eCard images.

  3. Create a unique folder for your site's full-sized, eCard images, such as /ecards/ecard-images/.
