Selecting the right image or images for your tribute
The main thumbnail/obituary image
Thumbnail Image
The main thumbnail image is responsible for submitting to newspapers, website obituary and often is the main image used for the funeral program.
Use an image that is in PORTRAIT
mode like the one shown. This is an image that is taller than it is wide. Not LANDSCAPE as shown below.
Attempt to select an image that is good quality if possible. A really small image (wallet or smaller) will reproduce a lessor quality scan than an 8x10 portrait image. Foremost, you should select the best image that represents your loved one.

Slideshow Video Images
Slideshow Images
The slideshow images are used to create the video tribute memorial.
Slideshow images can use Landscape and Portrait images without limitation. They can reside on your phone and/or be scanned from physical pictures.
Attempt to select images that are good quality if possible. You should select the best images that represents your loved one and family.
Select up to 100 images to create your loved one's tribute. While more may seem better, it is generally a more appropriate (and meaningful) to not do too many.
Try to not duplicate images if possible. A variety of your loved one, family, friends, special memories, pets, etc. are all acceptable.
