Help:HeroImage

Using the Hero Image feature — which is only available to administrators — you can easily promote your community on Fandom's main page and give your community's main page a bold, professional look. The Hero image will be displayed on the "Mix it up!" grid on Fansom's front doorstep.

Uploading a Hero image to your main page is easy. Just follow the steps and guidelines below!

Enable the Hero image feature in Labs
It should pop right out at you - the feature is called Hero Image.

Upload Images
The upload process is super-simple. Just go to your community's main page and click "Update Cover Image", then pick one from your local computer (using images in your existing galleries is not currently supported, but you can always download them). Using the best practices below as a guide, find and upload the image that works best for your community. Make sure to use a high quality image as it will appear in multiple sizes across multiple browsers.

Once you've uploaded the image you want, hit the "Publish" button. If you want to discard your changes, click "Discard".

Give your Fandom a name and summary
Click the purple circle with a pencil in it and give your Fandom a name. Usually this is something simple, and communities often discuss what they're naming it as a group. Under the name, there's a space for a summary. Remember that this summary is going to be used around the site to promote your community, so try to make it sound fun and interesting!

Once you click "Publish", the changes automatically go live. Don't worry, as long as you've filled in the information and uploaded an image, only you and fellow admins can see the "Editor" portions of it.

Best Practices for Images
Above all, get creative!
