Adding Product Images

For Images Already Uploaded to your Image Gallery:
From the Image Gallery tab, simply click an image to enlarge it and view the image details. To select this image for your activity, click +Add Image > Done.
The image you selected will then be displayed on the Basic Settings page for your product. Be sure to Save Changes so your new image settings for the activity are retained.
To Upload a New Image:
To add an image that is not yet in your Image Gallery, click the Upload tab at the top of the image overlay.
From here, click Choose File to select the image you wish to upload. The recommended image dimensions are 720px by 300px, and the maximum file size is 3Mb. Note: If you are unable to upload an image, we recommend using tinypng.com to condense the file (see Compressing Large Image Files).
Once you've opened your image, you'll need to position and crop it to fit into the rectangular format used on our site. When you are finished, select Save Changes.
Your image will now appear with the other images under the Image Gallery tab. Simply select the image from this tab and click +Add Image > Done.
The newly uploaded image will now be displayed on the Basic Settings page for your product. Be sure to Save Changes so the new image is saved for this product.
