TIPS FOR POSTING TO:
1. The Correct SHAPE of Images
You probably do not want an image like the one above to be next to your event that your organization has put so much time, effort and money into creating.

When you upload an image to your Event Info page you are helped by an app that will crop your image to the correct proportions. But it will crop the image you upload from the center out, so it helps to use an image that is the correct shape for the space.

At the bottom of this box to the right you will see a link to a very useful free online cropping tool.
