Subject Site Banners

Banners available in LearnJCU

Educators and site editors can upload an image that displays as a tile in the Subjects' grid view and a banner inside the subject site. This feature will help students distinguish subjects from one another and identify subjects at a glance.

There are, however, some caveats with sizing and clipping that occur with the responsiveness to screen size and view. To assist with this we recommend an image size of 2400 x 480 pixels with a focal point near the centre. This will aid the visual presentation in the various views (tiles/banners) and accommodate for large screen sizes.

To get started, we have cropped a series of JCU images you can use. If you decide to upload your own, we recommend using a large image with high resolution quality (if your image shows pixilation it is likely too small).  There are also stock images available from Unsplash that can be searched for and added from within LearnJCU.

For accessibility, we recommend you do not add any text to the image as it is for decorative purposes only and it will potentially be cut off when students view the subject site on mobile phones.
