Social media is driven by visuals. It's important to have a compelling photo or video with your post. User-generated content is a great way to engage and interact with your audiences. Before you use another person's content, ask for permission and give appropriate credit in the post. To ensure the best appearance, be sure to follow the image size guidelines outlined by each social media site.

Follow these additional guidelines when posting photographs or videos on your social media sites.

• Photos of children under the age of 18 should not be posted without written consent from parents or guardians.
• Photos on social networking sites must be appropriate. Examples of photos that should be avoided include, but are not limited to photos involving alcohol, nudity, medical and hospital patients, and graphic scenes.
