When I upload an image, why does it not display correctly?

When you upload an employee photo, you may find the photo does not display correctly for cropping and uploading. This may be due to your computer screen has a very low resolution.

In this example, the screen resolution is set to 1024x768. The dimensions of the source image/photo (the one you are trying to upload from your computer) are physically too large to be cropped properly (in this case, the source image is 2400x3600.

If this happens, you can do one of two things:

1. Increase your computer screen resolution
2. Reduce the image's dimensions or crop the image in an image editor (if appropriate) - the largest employee image dimensions we use for display purposes are 400 pixels wide by 480 pixels deep (400px x 480px) so anything close to this will be ideal. For simplicity, you may want to choose 600px x 800px as this is a common preset crop in a lot of image editing packages.
