Upload two Images and fine-tune their Height and Focal point. Add a Mobile-specific image for the best results on smaller screens.

Add image blocks

STEPS

In your theme editor (Customize):

1. Click on an Image hero split block to open the settings.

2. Click Select image to upload and select an image file.

   There are no required images dimensions. We simply recommend uploaded images have a minimum width of 2050px for optimal quality across all devices.

3. (Optional.) Upload a Mobile image to display only on mobile devices.

   You may want a different image that works best with mobile screen dimensions, for example a portrait shaped image.

4. Use Image focal points to specify the main focus of your images. The focal point of your image will remain centered and within frame when your site adapts to different screen sizes.

   See our image guide to learn more about specifying a focal point for an image used within a section or for an uploaded image file when used anywhere on your site.

5. Enter text for the Heading as a title overlayed on top of the image block.

6. Enter Text for a subheading beneath the heading to say more. We recommend a short sentence or two.

   Use the formatting buttons to add text styles, links, or lists. To learn more, see Shopify's Rich text editor guide.

7. Select or paste a URL for the Button link.

8. Enter text for the Button label. If left blank, the entire image will be a clickable link.

   The most effective button labels ask customers to do something (e.g. Get started, Join us, Shop now). To learn more, read "What is a Call to Action?"

9. Select a Button style: either Solid, Outline, or Text.

   Click on the Image hero split section to find the color options for buttons.

10. Repeat steps 1 - 6 for the second hero image block.

11. Click Save.
