Image fields enable you to add images to forms.

## Before you begin

Role required: personalize_form

## About this task

For example, you can add portraits to the user records in your system. The image type
must be .gif,
.jpg/.jpeg, or
.png.

Image resizing is defined by the CSS. Larger images are resized to 250 pixels. For
most browsers, the larger of the height and width measurements is reduced to 250
pixels and the proportion of the image is maintained. For example, an image with a
size of 1508 x 663 pixels is resized to 250 x 110 pixels. Some browsers resize both
the height and width measurements to 250 pixels, resulting in a square image.

You can add a new image field.

## Procedure

1. Open the desired form.
2. Create a new field with the Type set to Image.  
   For instructions, see [Add and customize a field in a table](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/1vEQYT7bKkaR8ZBd8s~Pnw "Administrators can add new fields to a table to store and display data.").
3. Add the new field to the form and save your customization.  
   The form displays the new blank image field.
4. Click Click to add in the image field, select an image to upload, and click OK.  
   The selected image is attached to the form and displayed in the image field.
