What picture formats can I upload?
If you would like to upload your own photo, please ensure you have the image saved on your computer. Accepted file types are jpg and gif.
How big can the photo be?
Your image should be no larger than 350k in file size. If you would like to upload your own photo, please ensure you have the image saved on your computer.
How do I make my photo smaller?
Often photos taken by digital cameras are too large to be viewed on this website. If you plan on uploading a photo to your Profile Page, you may need to make a smaller copy on your computer first. Try these tips:
- Adjust the image quality setting on your digital camera to take photos at a smaller resolution, such as 800x600 or smaller. This may make them small enough to upload.
- Does your digital camera come with image editing software? If it's installed on your computer, open the software and follow the instructions to resize your photos. Remember to Save As a different file name so as not to overwrite your original (large) photo. Always save the photo in JPG/JPEG format
- Try using the free website www.resize2mail.com to upload and reduce the size of your photo.
Can I upload a business logo (if I have a business team)?
Yes, please ensure you have the image saved on your computer. Your image should be no larger than 350k in file size. Accepted file types are jpg and gif.
Once I’ve added photos or my message, how do I make changes?
Just Sign in to your Fundraising Page and use the tabs at the top and the menu items on the left to make any changes you need.
Team Captains also have a Team Tab, so they can make changes to the Team’s photo, message and goal.
