Shopify Prestige theme Advice for my shop (hero image, image sizes)

Hello!

For my shop www.grasimglas.de I want to create a new “hero image” which is now done as a slideshow, in order to create the button with “CBD Blüten”.

This was done so by an outsider.

In the coming rework of the shop with new photos I want to create the new hero image exactly for that typical top spot. Not sure yet, if there will be buttons - maybe not.

My question is advice for the size and design from a website perspective of that image. With prestige theme the documentation doesnt talk about “hero images”, it only states 1800x1000 for collection images, same for blog posts and different sizes for product images.

Now for a “hero image” used in the sense of this demo store of the prestige theme, what would you recommend for image proportions & resolution?

Thanks a lot in advance!

For product images, a common recommendation is to use a square aspect ratio, such as 1:1, to ensure consistency and avoid distortion. As for resolution, aim for a minimum of 2048 pixels on the longest side to ensure sharpness and clarity. However, be mindful of file size to prevent slow loading times. Compress your images without sacrificing too much quality using tools like Shopify’s built-in image optimization or external tools like TinyPNG or JPEGmini.
