Image sizes

Your theme

Picante crops pictures to the shape you choose. Upload large, sharp originals so they look good on every screen.

  1. Open the theme editor.
  2. Select the section that holds the picture.
  3. Find Image ratio. A ratio is the shape of a picture, width to height.
  4. Choose a shape, such as Portrait (4:5) or Square (1:1).
  5. Select Save.

For product cards, open Theme settings and then Product cards. Use Image ratio there.

Where Starting shape
Product cards Portrait (4:5)
Product page gallery Portrait (4:5)
All collections page Portrait (4:5)
Media with text Portrait (4:5)
Shop the look Portrait (4:5)
Product spotlight Portrait (4:5)

Adapt to image keeps each picture’s own shape.

These are examples, not rules.

Shape Example size in pixels
Portrait (4:5) 1,600 by 2,000
Square (1:1) 2,000 by 2,000
Landscape (4:3) 2,000 by 1,500
Wide (16:9) 1,920 by 1,080
  • Logo: upload one at least 360 pixels wide. It stays sharp on high-resolution screens. Find it in Theme settings, then Logo and favicon.
  • Favicon: the small icon in the browser tab. Use a 32 by 32 pixel .png file.
  • Large dropdown menu image: use a picture at least 720 pixels wide and 900 pixels tall.
  • Picante shows pictures up to 1,920 pixels wide. Product pictures that open full screen go up to 2,560.
  • A small picture looks soft in a big space. Do not upload tiny files for big sections.
  • Where there is no shape choice, the picture fills its area and is cropped. Keep the main subject near the center.
  • Use one shape for all product photos so your cards line up.
