Can you attach a photo to a record?

Our Development department would like to know if there is anyone out there that has been able to attach an photo to an individual constituents record. We were wondering what the size requirements are as well as is there a type of format that works better, jpg vs. gif.


Also, where in the record were you storing this picture. Someone here wants to attach the picture to our custom header, but we all thought the picture would be too small, if it would even be possible.


Thanks for your imput!

    Hi Kathryn, I've been doing a lot of this recently as part of our prospect research.  We attach photos in the "Documents" section of the Research tab in an individual's constituent record.  I think I just save pics as jpegs on my hard drive and then I attach it like you would attach a file to an email.  You could also upload other documents there as well that might pertain to the constituent.  I'm not sure about size requirements, but I've been able to attach any photo I've come across on the web.  The header is an interesting idea, but I too don't know if it's possible.  Hope this helps!
