The Author Page is where you can show off / promote your work and share information about yourself. On this page you can include a photo of yourself, a bio and… your contents.

Setting up Your Author Page

Your Headshot
First things first—like with any profile—the thing that viewers notice first is your profile picture or headshot.
When considering your headshot, you want to keep it classy but not boring.
And with all headshots, you want it to look professional. A clean, high-quality photo is what you want. No one wants a grainy pixelated photo to represent their brand!

Your Bio
This will be the next most important thing a viewer will see. An author’s bio is the foundation to get their work out there. It’s as much for you as it is for your readers.

Your contents
Then there’s your content that shows what you can do.

Do you want to be known for your unique work? Crafting a good Author Page is one of the essential steps!

In case of non-compliance with our “Images, photos guidelines”, your submission will not be considered 😳

• Optimize images before submit
  • visit our FAQ Page for Help!
• File requirements
  • File type:jpg format (Web Optimized).
  • File size: Max 2 MB size. Width: min 1200, max 2000 pixels. Height: min 1200, max 2000 pixels.
• Photo Non-Commercial
  • We do not allow photos which contain logos, promotional material, or any other content intended for commercial purposes.
• We only accept clean photographs, with no overlapping lettering, logos or watermark.

The limit of images that can be included in a single post of the Photo Essays category, is 10 😳.
You must therefore divide your work into 2 separate Photo Essays of 10 photos each, taking care not to use the same Title or Body text in the 2 photo essays. Remember to conclude the Body text of the first photo essay indicating that it is the first part of your work and that the second part will be published later.

If the photos you submit do not meet the requirements here, your submission will be deleted!

• Please submit only full-bleed image (shadowless).

A full-bleed image extends from one edge of your browser window to the other, spanning the width of the site. This creates an expansive feel and puts the focus on imagery.

• Photo size recommended

Width: min 1200, max 2000 pixels. Height: min 1200, max 2000 pixels.

«Save images for web» BEFORE uploading them.
In general, a file (photo) that respects the Image size recommended and is correctly optimized and Save for Web, does not exceed the size of 2 MB.
The total size of the files sent via the “submission form” must not exceed 20 MB.
If the total size of the files you are trying to send exceeds 20 MB, the sending will fail and will be aborted.

How to write compelling captions?

Provide some context or background to the reader so he or she can understand the news value of the photograph.

A basic photo captions should:

• Clearly identify the people and locations that appear in the photo.
• Include the date the photograph was taken.
• Provide some context or background to the reader so he or she can understand the news value of the photograph.

Be brief. Most captions are one or two short, declarative sentences.
