Office of Marketing

Home Page Slider Request Form

USM's home page image slider features two Wild Card spaces that rotate different events, news, or accomplishments at the university. Each Wild Card slider is live on the home page for about two weeks, based on schedule and availability. Slider space cannot guaranteed, but we do our best to accommodate requests.

The Office of Marketing will need a lead time of seven (7) business days to create and acquire all necessary approvals before the slider is to be published.

Text space on each slide is limited to 250 characters (this includes spacing, punctuation and any HTML markup behind the scenes), and the slider will link to a webpage that should offer more detailed information to anyone that clicks through. There is often room for 2–3 Related Links on the left as well.

If you need help choosing an image, please visit the Web Ready Image Bank, or write a note in the comments section below. Questions? Please contact Tina Burnell at x4775.
