What size should I make my images before uploading them?

For products, galleries, and news mentions, don't resize your images. The IndieMade system will automatically create appropriately sized copies of your images for you, so they look great in whatever theme you pick. Switch themes, and your images will automatically get resized to match.

If you're adding pictures to a blog post or a page, though, you have more flexibility. Scale them down to whatever size fits your design using your image editor of choice -- this is better than using the rich text editor's scaling functionality, which can result in pixelated images.

See our photo sizing handbook page for more details.
