If you need to resize photos of your salon so that they can be uploaded to Connect, it's likely that you have a programme to do this already installed on your computer.
Alternatively, there are also a number of free online photo editing software that you can use to resize, crop and edit photos.
Remember, the original file size needs to be large enough to retain a high resolution: 1920 x 1280 pixels minimum.
