Now that you know the different ways to describe an image’s size, here’s a few rules of thumb to keep in mind:

• Optimal file size: Large images or full-screen background images should be no more than 1 MB.
• Most other small web graphics can be 300 KB or less.
• If you’re using a full-screen background, Jimdo’s Customer Support Team recommends uploading an image that’s 2000 pixels wide.
• Resolution for web images: If you have the option, always “Save for web” which will give your image a web-friendly resolution.
• You can make a large image smaller, but it’s very hard to make a small image bigger. It will look fuzzy and pixelated.
