A Shopify beginner is trying to add decorative parallel lines (matching their brand colors) as dividers between sections on their site (Dezinery.com.au).
Current Approach:
Using a narrow image of 4 parallel lines inserted via a multicolumn block
Image is centered with “adapt to image” setting but won’t stretch to full column width
Background can be made transparent
Key Question:
How to make the image extend across the full width of the column?
Suggested Alternatives:
Transparent PNG image
CSS-based solution (code approach)
Potentially adjusting image dimensions
The user is seeking guidance on either stretching the current image implementation or understanding if CSS would offer advantages for this static design element. The discussion remains open with no resolution provided yet.

Hi, I’m very new to Shopify so apologies if this question has already been asked.
Basically, I’m trying to add a narrow image of 4 parallel lines between each section like a ribbon. Is there a way of doing this? Is there another way of achieving the same outcome such as drawing the lines and setting their colour to match the logo?
Yes, it’s definitely possible to add a narrow image of parallel lines between sections, and there are multiple ways to achieve this. You could use a custom image or CSS, depending on how much flexibility you need.
A good approach would be to match the colors to your logo for consistency. Have you tried using a transparent PNG for the lines, or would you prefer a code-based solution? Let me know what works best for you, and I’d be happy to guide you further!
Hi, so far I have experimented using an image 4 lines in my brand colours in a multicolumn as that was the narrowest option I could find. I can make the background disappear in the image. How do I extend the image across the full width of the column?
I don’t really need any flexibility once it is set up, but am flying blind - are there any advantages to the CSS approach?
Hi, can you please tell me how to make the image in a column stretch the full width ? I have got it centred and “adapt to image” but it isn’t going all the way. Will it help if I changed the image size in any way ? Thanks so much
