Types of banners
-
Primary banners
- Amount: 1, 2, or 3
- Display: At the top of the screen; the first displays automatically, with a sideways arrow to scroll to a second and/or third
- Size: On mobile view, the primary banners are the same size as secondary banners. On desktop view, they are twice as large.
-
Secondary and Tertiary banners
- Amount: 2
- Display: Under the primary banner (if a primary banner is set)
- Secondary banners are on the left, and Tertiary banners are on the right.
Tip: Secondary banners will NOT show if only one is set. Both image slots must have an image in order for them to display.

Review banner image requirements
Your banners are images directly uploaded by you. You will need two versions (sizes) of each banner, to support both your desktop and mobile customers.
Cut+Dry only accepts PNG or JPEG images for the banners. We recommend using PNG for better quality.
