Using Images on Leeds Now

You must have the right to use all images added to Leeds Now
You must attribute those images correctly, even if you took them
You must edit and save the images elsewhere before uploading them
- there is a 1MB limit on file uploads, so you will need to resize or crop all images to a maximum 1200px width, and ideally a landscape ratio of 4:3. Featured images MUST be in landscape format.
- you need to save the images with a descriptive name, including the photographer and copyright info, e.g. comfycat-katiehall-allrightsreserved.jpg
- IF YOUR IMAGES HAVE NOT BEEN NAMED CORRECTLY THEY WILL BE REMOVED!
You can use public domain images ONLY from the Instant Images tab – please do not use OpenVerse images. You need to copy the credit info from the Title field into the Image Source field.
You must fill out the Alt text – you can use AI for this. Upload the image and ask it to generate accessible alt text.
You must add the Image Source details – if you took the picture you can click ‘Standard Source’ and it will add your name. Then select a license that you’re happy to share it under. I recommend All Rights Reserved. (By the way, this also means that your coursemates won’t be allowed to use it in their stories unless they have written permission from you.)
For the Featured Image, you ALSO need to add the source details in the Title field.
