Image sizes-technical

Want to know more… about image sizes

Having some understanding of image sizes or image aspect ratios is important to make sure that your listings appear as you expect them to.

A common aspect ratio to use is 4:3 This is where the height of the image is 75% of the width – also often used for Agent images

Image aspect ratio

A 16:9 aspect ratio is where the height is 56.25% of the width of the image.

Hints.

  • The maximum image size is 1920 pixels in width or height, any image uploaded larger than this will automatically be reduced to 1920 × 1080
  • Older image aspect ratio 4:3 while newer images tend to be 16:9. You can use 4:3, 16:9 , make sure that all images on a listing are the same aspect ratio.
  • It a good idea to also make sure that all of your agent images are also the same aspect ratio.
  • Your OSL website has 3 options for displaying listing images; 4:3, 3:4 or 16:9
