# Managing your photos
## This covers your profile photo, cover photo and production photos, along with the technical specs and recommendations for each.
### **Profile photos**
Profile photos represent you and appear on your public artist profile.
1. Log in and click Manage profile.
2. Go to Profile Info / Photo.
3. Upload a photo from your device and click Add.
We recommend a vertically aligned professional portrait with your face clearly visible and in focus; avoid stage images, for example in costume and stage makeup.
### **Cover photo (media widget header)**
Your cover photo appears across the top of your profile and in your media widget.
1. Log in and click Manage profile.
2. Scroll to Photos and upload a Cover photo.
We recommend a horizontally aligned image, at least 1024px wide by 256px high, with a width-to-height ratio of at least 4:1; outside this ratio, the photo will be slightly stretched. If you do not upload a cover photo or video, Operabase automatically populates this space with a photo or video from one of your productions. Note that any video uploaded to your profile, or linked to a production you're part of, is prioritised over a photo in the media widget; to feature your cover photo instead, select "Mark cover photo as primary on media widget" when editing it.
### **Production photos**
Production photos are linked to specific productions you've participated in, and appear on both the company's production page and your profile. They cannot be edited, but you can show or hide them.
Via the Photos section: go to Photos, then Production photos, click Add photo, upload the image, associate it with the correct production, and save.
Via Performance Credits: find the production and click Edit, upload images under Production posters or Production photos, then save and submit your changes.
### **Production poster, livestream and VOD posters**
For a production poster, we recommend a vertically aligned image with a title and highlights of the cast; if one isn't available, a generic banner image or a photo from the production will work. Posters are required to announce any associated livestream or VOD.
### **Reordering photos**
Use the Reorder button to change the display order of profile photos and production photos; the first image appears most prominently in your photo gallery.
### **General upload guidance**
- File formats: PNG, JPG, JPEG
- Size: 25MB to 750MB. Very large files (1GB or more) take longer to upload and may fail on a slow connection; very small files (1MB or less) may look blurry in full-screen preview.
- If you are browsing on a slow connection or a VPN, images may appear blurry regardless of the original file's resolution and size.
- When uploading by URL, make sure the URL points directly to the image file and is publicly accessible, for example that it opens in a private browsing window. A link to a page that merely contains an image is not enough.
Industry professionals and artist managers can manage photos on behalf of artists. Some features are only available on paid plans. If something isn't uploading correctly, see [*Photo FAQs & Troubleshooting*](https://help.operabase.com/knowledge/en/artist-photo-upload-guidelines-0-0?hsLang=en).
