Image sizes & Teaser viewmodes
Click on the links and enter "hbs" as username & password. You will see the boxes in different container contexts/viewmodes.
The given sizes are optimal sizes. You could also use different sizes as long as the ratio between width and height remains the same.
Technically, the process works as follows:
- Images will be cropped so that they match the width/height-ratio. By default, this happens around the center.
- The size will be upscaled (if uploaded image is too small. Images can get blury or pixelated) or downscaled (if uploaded image is too big. Usually, the image quality doesn't worsen).
Grid-Boxes
- Teaser Cinemascope: 980x392
- Thematic Focus Box: 1220x400 (with growing height when text is added)
- Full Bleed (video / image): 1220x488
Image extended: Upload high resolution. The box constrains the original image proportions; the width depends on the slot width
Articles, Teaserimage: 980x654
Persons (1220x1220)

Not all of the D7-functions work in D8, but the pages below still help to become familiar with the Drupal basics.
