# Image with text
The **Image with text** section combines a feature image with a marketing call to action block. With a flexible layout and optional button, it's a great way to introduce a product collection or something new and exciting.
## Set up section
Add this section to any template (except Checkout) and use the drag-and-drop handles to re-order its position. You can add this section multiple times with different content and settings.
{% hint style="warning" %}
Editing a template changes all pages that use that template. To edit specific pages, you can [create new templates](https://help.fluorescent.co/lorenza/general/editing-themes/using-templates#create-and-assign-multiple-templates) or [use metafields and dynamic sources](https://help.fluorescent.co/lorenza/general/adapting-your-theme/dynamic-content-with-metafields).

2. Under **Template**, click **(+) Add section** and select **Image with text**.
3. Click and hold the drag-and-drop handles **`⋮⋮`** to re-order your sections.

5. Choose to set the **Image width** to either *1/2* or *2/3* of the section.

| File size | Maximum 10MB (recommended) |
