Review your progress and start uploading:
On the main screen, you’ll see the number of files you've uploaded and any outstanding tasks.

The number of images allowed depends on your Tribute choice:
Single Photo: 1 image
Basic Slideshow, Themed Tribute, or Music Tribute: up to 25 images

For additional images, check the cost with your Funeral Planner.

Click ‘Begin upload’ next to the Tribute option you’ve agreed with your Funeral Planner to upload your images.

Select your images:
The image upload page will show the screen orientation type at your service location. This will either be Landscape or Portrait. For the best results, match your photo dimensions to the screen (landscape venue screens - 1920x1080, portrait venue screens, 1080x1920).

We can adjust portrait photos for landscape screens and vice versa, but matching them provides a more polished result.

Arrange your images:

You can drag and drop images to adjust their order. Many people arrange them in a timeline or by themes like holidays or activities.

Once satisfied, click the "Submit Tribute" button. Ensure you submit your images by the upload deadline.

Your photos will be securely shared with our media team, who will begin preparing your Tribute. After submission, you can view your photos, but changes can be made by contacting your Funeral Planner.
