Fivercam Wiki information:
Image Ratio: Aspect ratio in photography and video is the relationship between the width and height of the image or video being displayed. Aspect ratios are most commonly shown as units of width and height separated by a colon. However, they can also be displayed as a single number that equates to the width divided by the height. It is crucial to correct the proper image ratio for taking quality pictures.
