How can I fix a too large and fuzzy product image?

I am trying to put an image on a product but the image is much too large and fuzzy. Only a portion of the image shows on the product because the image has become enlarged and overruns the dimension of the product. My image size is 2048px x 1985px (I read that Shopify recommends 2048px x 2048px for square images). Resolution is 72dpi. I have not compressed the file. Your suggested solution to this problem is much appreciated.

Hi @DougW ,

Please send me the code of card-product.liquid file, I will help you to change it.

I do not know where to find the code of card-product.liquid file.

I would prefer to not get into the coding of my website. Is there a way to adjust image size on products without changing the code? If it is necessary to change the code, could you please explain how to find the code for the card-product.liquid file. Thanks for your help.

Hi @DougW
You can download the theme code and send it to my email, then I can check and help you.

I was able to get the image to fit within the product dimensions but the image is still fuzzy compared to the appearance when the file is opened on the computer. Suggestions would be welcome.

Hi @DougW ,

Please go to Actions > Edit code > snippets > card-product.liquid file.

Hope it helps!

I am not able to locate “Actions”. Could you start from the admin screen
and explain the steps starting from there. Thanks for your patience.

Hi @DougW ,

You can refer https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/themes/theme-structure/extend/edit-theme-code

Hope it is clear to you.

Thanks for that very helpful link. I still have some work to do to get the image on my product to look right. I think that your suggested link will lead me to the answer, so I have marked your reply as the accepted solution. Thanks very much.

Hi @DougW ,

It will guide you to go to card-product.liquid file, if you want to solve fuzzy, please send me all the code, I will help you to change it

Thanks for your suggestion. I have changed the theme to the Ride theme (a
free theme from the theme store). As a result of this change, the product
images have become smaller and the fuzziness is less noticeable. I may get
into Liquid coding later, but for now I will try to get a satisfactory
appearance without coding.

Hi @DougW ,

Yes, if you want to show the image more clearly, you can send me the code, I will show you how to change it so that it shows the same as the original image.

The liquid code is as follows:

{%- if settings.favicon != blank -%}

{%- endif -%}

{%- unless settings.type_header_font.system? and settings.type_body_font.system? -%}

{%- endunless -%} {{ page_title }} {%- if current_tags %} – tagged "{{ current_tags | join: ', ' }}"{% endif -%} {%- if current_page != 1 %} – Page {{ current_page }}{% endif -%} {%- unless page_title contains shop.name %} – {{ shop.name }}{% endunless -%}

{% if page_description %}

{% endif %}
