Citizen Profile Photos
If you are a citizen of Nova Roma, you can add a photo to your Album Civium page.
This photo may be edited or removed for quality control reasons - we need to ensure that the photos are of the correct size and proportions and are a good representation of a citizen.
Size and Format
There are many pages where multiple citizen photos appear in an automatic layout, so size restrictions must be strictly enforced. The photos must be exactly 150 pixels square. If your picture is larger, we'll crop and resize it to fit; if smaller, we'll add padding at sides or top and bottom, as appropriate, to make it the right size.
The photos on the site must be in JPEG format, with a ".jpg" extension. If you're photo isn't in this format, don't worry - we'll convert it for you.
