Speaker Images

Speaker images will be provided by the conference and workshop committees, they will deposit them in the "Speaker Images" folder of the website committee's shared Google Drive folder. Once we have images, we follow this process to optimize them for the web and utilize on the site:

• Crop the image to be square (1x1 aspect ratio)
• Reduce the size & quality of the image, aiming to get it under 100kb file size, dimensions don't particularly matter (most from past years were 400px square)
• Export as a Progressive JPEG (e.g. from Pixlr or other image editor)
• Add the optimized image to the GitHub repo under the assets/img/speakers folder
• These images will be referenced in the speakers_final.yml data; if we do not have an image for someone, use a assets/img/nopic image at random (nopic1.jpg through nopic11.jpg)
