Nomination Photos in Xoxoday Empuls
Xoxoday Empuls supports attaching photos to nominations, giving each recognition moment a visual identity that text alone cannot provide. Both employees and managers can upload an image at the point of nomination, enriching the award record before it reaches the reviewer. Supported image formats Xoxoday Empuls accepts nomination photos in JPEG and PNG formats. These two formats cover virtually every scenario — from photographs taken on a smartphone during a company event to screenshots exported from collaboration tools like Slack or Microsoft Teams. PNG is ideal when you need a transparent background or a high-resolution graphic; JPEG works well for standard photographs and keeps file sizes manageable. Both formats are broadly compatible with enterprise HR systems such as Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, and Darwinbox, so uploads work consistently whether employees are submitting nominations from a desktop browser or a mobile device. How nomination photos flow through the programme After submission, the photo is stored alongside the written nomination and becomes visible to approvers during the review stage. Programme managers and administrators can see the image in context with the nominator’s reasoning, creating a fuller record of the achievement being recognised. Once the award is granted, Xoxoday Empuls can surface the photo as part of a recognition story on the Wall of Fame or within the social recognition feed, depending on your programme configuration. This gives individual awards a public moment of celebration, reinforcing a culture of appreciation across the organisation. A practical example Consider a quarterly “Above and Beyond” award run through Xoxoday Empuls, where team leads nominate peers who contributed during a critical product launch. Attaching a photo from the launch-day Slack huddle or a candid snapshot from the sprint retrospective makes the nomination feel specific and genuine. When the recognition story then appears on the Wall of Fame, colleagues see not just the award title but the real moment behind it — increasing engagement with the programme over time. Best practices Use PNG for graphics or images that require a clean background, and JPEG for event photography or screenshots. Keep images professional and directly relevant to the achievement. Xoxoday Empuls does not impose complex technical requirements at upload, so any employee can attach a photo without friction, regardless of their technical background.Learn more: Empuls Help Centre — Nomination
