A user added a custom liquid block image to their Shopify theme but needs help resizing it because the image appears very small.

Hello @Fumepodss ,

Greetings from the Store Watchers Support Team! Happy to help you today.

img_tag is a deprecated tag which means it is not supported anymore, as mentioned in Shopify doc here https://shopify.dev/api/liquid/filters/img_tag.

As a solution you can use image_tag. You can set width or size using sizes and width filter. Read more here https://shopify.dev/api/liquid/filters/image_tag
