Creating a Graphic for a Web Board
For a graphic to fill the entire board, the file should be set up to match the dimensions found using the how big is my browser? tool. This tool will illustrate the size of a web board. Upon navigating to the website by placing the how big is my browser? link into a web board of choice, please look to see the size of the web board. We recommend you make this the size of your image.
Create the graphic in an image processing application such as photoshop, flatten all layers, and then save the file. Save for Web as a bmp, .gif, .jpg, or .png. Ensure the file size is under 30MB, and image resolution is lower than 1500 pixels x 1500 pixels.
