Import motion as .mov file or embed vimeo. Use issuu.com to embed pdfs. SWF files you need to post onto a webserver. I can help you with that if you have a .swf file you want to upload. Sizing photos : size your images in photoshop opposed to letting behance or cargo do it for you. Use 72 (or 150 dpi). Width: 400 – 700 px (depends on your layout/template) Height: max 800 px Determine max width and max height (images should be as large as they can be but you do not want to scroll to see the image on a laptop. Some of your work will be at the max height and some at the max width and sometimes both. Save as jpgs. png files are good but usually file size is too large ISSUU.com is a great place to upload pdfs (process books) and can be embedded into Cargo or Behance. *Upload as SINGLE page pdfs (not spreads) Helpful Cargo tips how-to-make-a-great-thumbnail how-to-make-thumbnail-hover-states setting-up-a-custom-url how-to-use-slideshow-captions CSS hex colors: 6 digit numbers or combo of letters and numbers system fonts: web design requires you use system fonts* *in some cases you can embed fonts. if you want a non-system font for project titles, etc you can use Typekit.com.
