Adding a Cover Photo

Adding a Cover Photo


A cover photo can be added to a Trip. When you are adding photos, you will be presented with 3 options:
  1. Search Photo Library
  2. Search Web
  3. Upload

A default Cover Photo will be added in most scenarios when a HELiO booking is sent to Trips.

Adding a Cover Photo

After creating a Trip, click anywhere on the cover photo banner.



Select one of the add photo options (see below for more details on searching and uploading photos).



You can search for the cover photo of your choosing or click the AUTO-PICK option to select a curated image based on the Trip destination (if segments exist within the trip).



Search Photo Library

Photos can be found within the TRIPS database (Pexels Image Library).
  1. Type in the keyword and select Search Photo Library. If any photos match the keyword entered, they will display.
    1. Try another keyword if no results are shown.
  2. Select the photo(s) you want to add and click Upload Photo.


Search Web

There are two ways to search the web for a photo.

Copy an Image URL

  1. Find an image on the internet
  2. Right-click on the image and select Copy Image URL or Copy Image Address
  3. Paste the URL into the Website field
  4. Enter a single space in the Keyword field and click Search Web

Search a Website

  1. Copy the site's address to the website field
  2. Enter a keyword (for example, photo, picture, hotel, room, gallery)
  3. Click Search Web
Some websites may contain restrictions and security features that may prevent us from being able to pull the image into Trip Publisher. In this case, images will not appear or not upload successfully when using the Search Web function (showing a blank or broken image). 

If the image is not matching recommendations, it may not upload or display correctly:

Orientation: Landscape
Minimum Width: 750 Pixels (1640 px or 1920 px recommended)
Maximum Height: 450 Pixels (for best results)
File Format: JPG or PNG



Enter a keyword and search unsplash.com (another source of freely-usable images) for great cover photo options!

Upload

  1. Select the Upload tab.
  2. Click Choose Photos to Upload and then search for the image on your computer/device.
  3. Click Upload Photos.


Recommended Photo Size:
Orientation: Landscape
Minimum Width: 750 Pixels (1640 px or 1920 px recommended)
Maximum Height: 450 Pixels (for best results)
File Format: JPG or PNG

Photo Cropping

Once you have selected a photo from either Search Photo Library or Search Web you can crop the photo by choosing Crop Image. This will allow you to select the part of the image you would like featured on the web view and pdf itinerary.



Next, drag the cropping window to the desired location, or use the cropping handles in any corner to adjust the cropped size. Once complete, click Upload to add your photo.



The default aspect ratio of 16:9 is maintained. It is recommended that the chosen photo is in landscape and high resolution. Selecting a smaller area of the photo will likely result in the photo appearing blurry within Trip Publisher.
