Impact: Hero image

The hero image is the leading image or graphic for your message. It is displayed full-width without gutters on the left or right sides. Including a hero image is optional; not all messages benefit from having one.

Choosing the image file

Use the file chooser to select your desired hero image.

The hero image must be exactly 680 pixels wide. Using images that are wider or narrower than 680px will cause the message to display incorrectly.

Adding alt text

Add alternative text (aka alt text) to help screen reader users understand the connection between the image and the message content.
