Image Size Conventions #

Below are the image types available in Groupdesk. Use this as a reference when populating content. All images should be optimized for web and named properly before being uploaded.

We recommend gathering, editing, and then uploading your images before creating catalogs to streamline the catalog/trip building process.

Best Practice: Keep document names short and without special characters (Ex ! $ % & * # etc..)

Images should be saved/compressed for web so load times are not impacted.

Image types currently not in use are available within Groupdesk but are NOT recognized in the Trip Page, Booking Form or Profile. (ie: If you upload something incorrectly, it won’t appear where you want it)

There is a max file size to images and documents you can upload to Groupdesk.

There is currently no limit to the number of Image Documents you can attach to a Catalog item to be displayed in your Traveler Interface (Hotel & Other Catalogs).

What order do catalog images appear in carousel? #

Catalog images will appear in alphabetical order in their carousel.

ie: Name your image files nicehotel1.jpg, nicehotel2.jpg, nicehotel3.jpg, and ‘nicehotel1.jpg will appear first in the carousel.
