Card Back Imagery Tip

When adding imagery to the back of a card, you can follow this tip to create different sizes and justifications.

The width of the back of the Card is 700px wide. When uploading an image, the platform will display all imagery at this width as to fill the Card. If you would like to make an image small or have different justifications; create a background of 700px wide and place the image within it.
