| Back to Table of Contents Image Management Overview As the saying goes a picture is worth a thousand words so at OntarioCities we have designed our system to allow you to upload images to your website/catalogue. Most people these days use digital cameras to take their pictures and we have kept that in mind. All uploaded pictures are displayed at a ratio based on 640 by 480 or 480 by 640 (except Logos and Site Pictures which are auto scaled depending on the template chosen for your site). So what does this mean for you? This means in most cases your digital camera pictures can be uploaded to the system and displayed at various sizes with out being distorted or pushing things out of place on your website. You may also use this tool to upload PDF documents for use on your site.
