Image recommendations

Images can enhance the experience and appeal of your design system. Here are some quick tips for adding images in your styleguide.

Static images

  • Images can be added using the Image/Gif block or Design Uploads block
  • Uploaded images shouldn’t exceed 150 MB, which can cause slow loading time.
  • zeroheight supports the following image files:
    • jpg
    • jpeg
    • gif
    • png
    • svg

Cover page images

  • Pick a cover page image that looks good on different screen sizes. The cover image will resize itself based on what device you’re viewing your styleguide from
  • Optimize your images for the web before uploading them into zeroheight.
  • Uploaded images shouldn’t exceed 150 MB, which can cause slow loading time.
  • If you want to make the cover image look sharp on most monitors, you should choose a size of at least 1920 width. The height will depend on how tall your cover page is. If it’s full height, then we recommend going with a height of 1080.

Images in Shortcut Tiles

  • For the standard shortcut tiles, the best image ratio is 2:1.
  • For the different-sized shortcut tiles, the best image ratios are:
    • Small 4 column = 2:1
      Small 3 column = 3:1
      Small 2 column = 4:1
      Small 1 column = 8:1
    • Medium 4 column = 1:1
      Medium 3 column = 3:2
      Medium 2 column = 2:1
      Medium 1 column = 4:1
    • Large 4 column = 4:5
      Large 3 column = 1:1
      Large 2 column = 8:5
      Large 1 column = 4:1

Images in Rules

  • There is no image ratio for Rules blocks as the height will adapt to your image.
