Project image descriptions
Here, you can find all the images that are required to appear in a project. You can download the images to use them as a template.
Project thumbnail
This image is used when displaying your project on lists (e.g., the 'explore projects' page).
The lines at the bottom mark the place where the number of followers and backers are shown. They will cover the thumbnail.
Recommended size: 700x700 (1:1 proportion)
Cover image
It will be displayed as the background at the top of your project page. It should not contain any text. The image will have a darkening filter added automatically.
NOTE: This image is, in fact, not required, but we recommend to add it. If you don't, it will be covered by a plain dark background.
Minimum size: 1743x498 (21:6 proportion).
