Bespoke images:
Advanced users could upload a 1600 x 250 image to the media library (Categorised » Landing Page Banners), or choose to use one of the 27 extra landing page banner images that we have already put there, for your convenience.
To use the uploaded bespoke image in a landing page, you must also:

- Change your copy of the customisation code to:
- Make it load your preferred image
- Set your required level of blur and image brightness, - Tell your landing page to apply your customisation by setting its DC.keywords to 'landingpage custom'
See step-by-step instructions.

- Add the keyword fullContentWidth to the DC.Keywords field
- Click 'Save Changes'
- Add an 'NUIG Code Only' content type to your landing page
a. Name it 'Make Sidebar Visible'
b. Paste in this exact code: <script>$('#pageRightColumn').show();</script>
- Save Changes
