<details>

<summary><mark style="color:blue;"><strong>STEPS</strong></mark></summary>

In your theme editor (**Customize**):

1. Click on the **Promotion banner** section to open the settings.
2. (*Optional*.) Under **Background image**, click **Select image** to upload a background image.

   > For optimal quality across all devices, we recommend images with a minimum width of `2500px`.
3. 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](/stiletto/general/image-guide/theme-image-settings.md#image-focal-point) 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.
4. Use the color selector to change the **Text** and **Background** color.

   > The background color appears when there's no background image.
5. (*Optional*.) Change the **Overlay color** and **Overlay opacity** using the slider to increase the contrast between the text and background image (if used).

   > These settings help make your text clear and readable.
6. (*Optional*.) Click the **Overlay gradient** option to add a color overlay that fades across a range of hues.

   > You can choose the style, angle, position, and opacity of the gradient. See Shopify's [color gradient guide](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/themes/theme-structure/color-scheme#gradients) to learn more.
7. Click **Save**.
