Recommended Image Dimensions for Banners
Why This Matters
Many merchants run into issues with banners being cropped which can be a hassle to deal with, but preventing this issue is as simple as matching your image’s aspect ratio to the height setting you choose. When the aspect ratio of the allocated image space is identical to your image aspect ratio, you ensure that no unwanted cropping would occur.
When adding banner images, choosing the right dimensions is essential for your site to feel polished.
Below are the recommended dimensions for each height option:
Height Setting
Optimized Dimensions (W × H)
Higher-Quality Dimensions (W × H)
3/4 of screen
1864 × 650
2479 × 864
2/3 of screen
1864 × 573
2479 × 762
1/2 of screen
1864 × 420
2479 × 559
1/3 of screen
1864 × 308
2479 × 410
750px
1864 × 750
2479 × 998
650px
1864 × 650
2479 × 864
550px
1864 × 550
2479 × 732

The “Optimized Dimensions” are best for improving your site speed, but if a sharper look is what you are going after then consider using the “Higher-Quality Dimensions”.
Important Note
You need to disable image parallax from Theme Settings > Layout as it zooms into the image to create a scrolling effect. This leads to unwanted cropping, so consider disabling the parallax effect if it doesn’t fit your store design.
