Icon Sizes

The icons must be a .png or .jpeg image at least 1024 x 1024 px in size. Images bigger than the minimum will simply be auto-resized.

Primary icons are required; alternative icons are optional. To differentiate the icon in the featured content banner from the one in the listing, feel free to upload an alternative icon. However, uploading a primary icon is the only requirement.

When adding podcast and YouTube streams, the listing will be auto-populated with assets from the original source.
