Image Specs

Images should be limited to a maximum size of around 1MB each, up to 6 images are allowed.

File size can be reduced by resizing the image to a maximum width of either 1500 or 2500 pixels.

The image should also be optimised (saved for web) to reduce the file size to 300kb-1MB whilst keeping good representation on larger screens.

 If you are unsure how to do this in Photoshop, use this free online tool >>
