What are the size specifications for speaker photos, attendee pictures, or exhibitor logos?

Modified on Thu, 23 Jul at 12:13 PM

Upload speaker images and exhibitor or sponsor logos via the EventPilot Conference App Builder or link to them on your own server via your data files. 


For best results, avoid drop shadows or borders.


Format: .png or .jpg 

Image Size: max 320px x 320px

File Size: ideally under 25kb (use 50kb as a max for performance)


Tip for exhibitor logos: 

The images are automatically scaled to 320w x 280h. We recommend exhibitors to provide their logo in this size using a white background.

I am using spreadsheet and have Google Drive share links for my speaker photos. How do I make them end in .jpg or .png?

You can easily convert Google Drive share links into URLs that end in .jpg. 

If your links look like this:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EtzKJQY5CsYpL2kAw5WwM3gEBn_qdD/view?usp=share_link


Convert them to look like this instead: 

https://drive.google.com/thumbnail?id=1EtzKJQY5CsYpL2kAw5WwM3gEBn_qdD&sz=w320&ext=.jpg


If you are using a spreadsheet, you can convert your links via a formula. 

Imagine, you have the speaker photo URLs in column F in your spreadsheet, use the following formula:

=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(F2:F="", "", IF(ISERROR(REGEXEXTRACT(F2:F, "/d/([^/]+)")), F2:F, "https://drive.google.com/thumbnail?id=" & REGEXEXTRACT(F2:F, "/d/([^/]+)") & "&sz=w320&ext=.jpg")))


I have a speaker image link in my abstract management system and the image is not loading in the App Builder. What do I do?

  1. Ensure that your image URL ends in .jpg or .png. If it does not, correct the URL
  2. If you copy the image URL and paste it into your browser, does the image load? If not, please contact your AMS vendor to ensure that the images are publicly accessible.
