Things to know

Activity title:

Up to 35 characters look best (50 max)

Activity instruction:

Up to 50 characters look best (500 max)

Number of activity cards:

Up to 4 6 cards look best (12 max).

A vertical scrollbar appears at the left after 4 cards.

Activity image best practice:

Square 1:1 Aspect Ratio images work best for 6 match pairs.

16:9 or 4:3 Aspect Ratio images work best for 4 match pairs..

A 1:1 ratio means that an image’s width and height are equal, creating a square. (Example: a 1080 x 1080 pixel image)

There are several free image editors available to adjust the image aspect ratio.

To maintain image quality, crop the image dimensions using any image editor (ex. Paint/Paintbrush).

If an image is re-sized but not cropped to match pixel dimensions, the image may be stretched or squeezed to fit which can degrade the image quality.
