How To Determine the Pixel Size of an Image

 

As you read above, the pixel size of an image in Web Builder can only be up to 90 X 125 pixels. A larger image may result in distortion of your webpage. Pixel stands for picture element and is the smallest point that can be displayed in a television screen or computer monitor. Computer screen resolution is usually expressed in pixels such as 1280 X 800 or 1280 X 1024. If you are unsure of the pixel size of an image you want to upload to Web Builder, it is easy to check. Here's how you get started:

 

  1. Use Windows Explorer to locate the image you want to upload

  2. Right-click the image

  3. Click Properties in the menu that appears

  4. In the Image Properties box, click the Summary tab

  • In the Summary box by Width and Height, you will see the pixel count for the image

  • NOTE: If a series of grayed out fields appears with no data, look towards the bottom of the box. The Advanced button should be there. Click it to get to the Advanced Summary box.
