Spotlight Digital Exhibits

Configuring your Exhibit's Appearance

There are three parts to configuring your exhibit's appearance:

1. Exhibit masthead, which will appear as a banner across the top of your exhibit.
2. Exhibit thumbnail, which will appear on the exhibit homepage.
3. Main menu, which runs across the top of your exhibit, under the masthead.

The masthead and thumbnail can be uploaded from your computer or uploaded through OregonDigital.

Exhibit Masthead

This image will appear in the masthead, behind your exhibit’s title and navigation bar. If no photo is uploaded, the masthead will default to black.

1. Under Configuration, click Appearance.

2. Click the Show background image in masthead checkbox or your photo will not appear in the masthead.

3. To use an image already in the exhibit, begin typing the title of the image.

4. To upload your own image, click Upload Image and locate a photo on your computer. The image must be at least 120 pixels tall by 1200 pixels wide. For best results, use an image at least 1800 pixels wide. Click Open.

5. Your photo will appear under Cropped Image. Drag and drop the blue box and use the handles on the corners to resize until you’ve selected the desired area.
