Optimal Image Size for full size advert

[Roxzfr]

Hi All, my client want to me to use the hero image as an add (see attached - I know, design is awful I will do my best to lead them into the light!)

What in terms of px is the best width to work with?

As always TIA

Hi @Roxzfr, thanks for the good question, I think it depends on the layout, but if putting the hero image in a container, then 940px.

If creating a full browser width hero section, then a good thing to think about is what is the maximum target desktop view that you want to optimize for.

I generally use an image that is 16:9 aspect ratio and 1920x1080 or 1400x787 (for smaller views).

Here is an aspect ratio calculator: http://calculateaspectratio.com/

Here is a good blog post on working with images and performance: https://webflow.com/blog/how-to-boost-your-sites-performance

I hope this helps!
