How do I resize and crop an image to use in the CMS?

There are two options for resizing or cropping an image to use in the CMS:

  1. Resizing or cropping an image in the Media Library
  2. Resizing or cropping an image using software before uploading to the Media Library

For guidance on resizing or cropping an image in the Media Library by creating an Image Variant, see Information Sheet 7.0.

For guidance on preparing images for use in the CMS before uploading to the Media Library, see Information Sheet 30.0. The Information Sheet provides guidance on the following options, depending on the software available to you:

  • The University’s Photo Library;
  • GIMP 2;
  • Adobe PhotoShop.
