Uploading & Optimizing Images

Images are important to get customers interested in your products or business.
There are three methods of uploading images: Local, Server, and URL.

Uploading images using the Local method pulls up your browser's file navigation window.
You can navigate anywhere on your device to choose an image to upload.

Using the Server method, you can pull from images previously uploaded to the SW servers or upload your own to use at any time. To Upload an image using the Server method, right click within the main white space of the File browser window and select Upload files.

When uploading a file via the File browser, you can either drag and drop the file into the dashed box or Select files to upload to bring up your browser's file navigation window like in the Local upload method.

URL allows you to upload images using a link from anywhere on the web.

IMAGE OPTIMIZATION:

We recommend product images be approximately 1000 pixels wide. The image can be over or under this amount by up to 500 pixels.

For optimizing images, we recommend web sites like Resize Photos and Optimizilla.

REGARDING UPLOADING ISSUES:

If you encounter any issue while uploading a file on our website, first check the size of the file. In order to keep things running smoothly, we require files to be optimized to fit under 8 MB. Ideally, files that are between 2 and 4 MB are well suited for a store image.
