WCMS Image Sizes

It's very important that you do not upload large images into the WCMS. All images should be resized down for the web prior to uploading them. Images should only be around 100KB or less. 

Use the UCSC Image Cropping and Resizing tool OR use an online photo editor. More tips below.
