Detailed Gutters Specifications

  • One single static image is used for the skin (gutters). This image should be 1396px wide to accommodate nearly every screen size in common use. This does not mean that all browsers will show all of the skin content, as some users have smaller screens and browsers – the content you want to display to the highest amount of users should be contained within the area visible at 1396×600 marked in the diagram below
  • Total file size: 100k
  • Page content width = 996px
  • The space between the gutters should be 996px
  • Right and Left Gutter Width = Recommended 200px because as mentioned above this ensures that the highest amount of users will see the whole of the gutter area. Wider gutters are allowed as long as the above has been taken into account and that weight limits are also taken into account
  • You should fade the edges of the gutters to a solid colour. Please provide us with the exact hex colour so that it can be applied to the rest of the page background. This will improve the look of the creative to users with wider screens by avoiding hard edges
  • The centre of the skin image will appear behind the page content and therefore it will not be shown. This means that you can leave it blank, which will considerably help keeping the weight of the creative low
  • The skin will be aligned by the browser to the centre of the page therefore it is subject to pixel rounding issues. The consequence of this is that a thin line might appear between the page content and the gutter, because a small portion of the blank area at the centre of the wallpaper is shown. In order to avoid this we suggest building the gutter with an additional 3 to 5 pixels in width, with the additional pixels moved towards the centre – i.e. the space between the gutters will be reduced by 3 to 5 pixels each side
  • Background colour must be thematically consistent with the skin content
  • No text allowed. With the exception of logos and necessary legal text, all text, slogans and calls to action must live in the masthead units
