We are using Google Drive to store and link to our photos and whilst they look great in mobile mode, they don’t look so sharp in tablet, and especially in desktop mode.

So, what is the recommended dimensions for photo uploads in order for them to look as good on desktop as they do on mobile?

Posted this same question [here](https://community.glideapps.com/t/recommended-image-dimensions/6172). It’d be great to have a guide so that we can create multiple images for different devices or scenarios.

This might help.

> Hi there - I’m preparing a bunch of graphics for use in an app and I’m wondering if there are any sort of guidelines or recommendations for image resolutions. For example, what would the correct pixel dimensions be to show tiles in the 3:1 ratio. I want everything to load quickly, but not become blurry on different devices. Or am I overthinking this? Any input would be greatly appreciated!

@Jeff_Hager the article doesn’t really tell anything about the resolution of the image. How many pixels to choose.
