@Hai_Nguyen2 - can you please share your product page link, where it as big image? using css we can reduce the image size.
hi suyash,

i tried to edited the file in the featured-product-liquid page under section but couldnt find how it work.
thanks
hai
let me try asking this question another way.
does anyone know where is the file folder for the feature-product-image would be located in the dawn theme so that I can adjust the size of the image in the product page?
any help would be appreciated.
thanks
Seems like it was answered here: https://community.shopify.com/c/shopify-design/dawn-theme-large-image-on-pdp/m-p/1267709
I could not get it to work though. Please let me know if you have any success!

yeah, i took a look at the solution that the shopify partner marcoswatanabe described but it seem that that file is for VIDEO and not Images.
it’s the wrong file.
the direction is correct but the image is in another file.
This blog post that marcoswatanabe posted in his reply has the correct answer to our problem but the writer didn’t mention where on earth the file folder that the image would be located.
if he could have pointed that out. it would have been a life saver.
here the blog post that I am referring too.
We ended up having to add custom css to resize everything. Such a pain
That is a pain. Dawn 2.0 is really good but shopify still need to improve a bit more on it. these are low hanging fruit as well. They arent anything difficult and many user use this setting a lot as well. if you dont mind me asking, can you give me an example of your shop so that I can see if it worth it for me to get a developer to do the same? thanks hai
You can edit the images and the product info sizes easily. Just a few edits here.
| @media screen and (min-width: 990px) { .product:not(.product–no-media):not(.featured-product) .product__media-wrapper { max-width: 64%; width: calc(64% - 1rem / 2); } |
|---|
Change the max-width to 50%
Next, find the other code for the product info, see below
| .product:not(.product–no-media):not(.featured-product) .product__info-wrapper { padding-left: 4rem; max-width: 36%; width: calc(36% - 1rem / 2); } |
|---|
You can change the width, 300px, to any width you wish. The height will be calculated automatically.
Kind regards,
Diego
Hi there,
Jack from OpenThinking here!
Actually it’s really easy you can do that with one line of CSS.
Copy&Paste the following file inside your layout/theme.liquid file, just before the tag!
let me know if this works for your. If yes; accept my answer and give me thumbs up! Thank you.
like everyone, i am lazy by nature and went for jack from openthink with that one line of CSS - well, jack one line of code didnt work for me. I guess if something is to good to be true then…
I will be trying made4Uo and diego_ezfy suggestion to see if it works and will post here my finding.
thanks everyone for helping to get to a solution for this very minor problem.
LOL, Same!! But you wasn’t 100% honest tho. It is working but your image is way too small so it’s still a bit pixelated…
Try with this:
let me know if this works for your. If yes; accept my answer and give me thumbs up! Thank you.
Openthinking - thanks for this new update.
my photos are based solely on what google think will best delivery to the device that a user used.
currently only 21 of those photos are low quality images. this is out of 10 thousand SKU, so I am being honest with what I say.
i have also given your example a try but it didnt work out for me. the photo seems a bit wonky, so i will be using another solution. it might be good for another user but not for me. thank you for your help.
also, for anyone who want to know more about Openthinking solution, here’s a link to the CSS from Mozilla that might help out if the size doesnt seem to work for you.
Ok, no probs.
But imho a low quality pixelated image is never the answer even on a toaster, and I don’t think Google likes that too.
You need to always upload the best quality image and let the browser deliver the best fit for the device/screen visiting the website. That’s why “srcset” and
all the best,
Jack.
I was struck to resize thumbnails(images below main product image) and this code work for me
I put in the end of the base.css file
ul.product__media-list.grid.grid–peek.list-unstyled.slider.slider–mobile li:not(:first-child) {
max-width: 283px;
}
Excellent Solution! Worked Exactly as needed. Thank You!
Thanks @diego_ezfy , this worked for me, although, it seems like it resizes every single image, so for one of my smaller images, it made it too small, while it adjust a large image perfectly.
However, how do I apply this concept on a Collections page? I only have two items in my collections page right now, and the images for them are huge, which is unnecessary. I can’t post the link because my site is not published yet, but does anyone know what I am talking about?
Separate gripe, which I wrote to Shopify about and they politely responded that they know this but haven’t solved the problem for us yet:
However, I don’t see why @Shopify_77 won’t just make an option (for us non-css experts) to just be able to resize each individual image. Other companies do this, and have done this since I was a teenager learning HTML.
I have made about 6 different theme versions now, and the inability to size the fonts and images consistently all over the website, is maddening.
Thanks
Hi! Your advice is great. I tried it and it worked, however in my case I only wish to reduce the size of featured products images on home page. Could you help me with that? Any sort of advice would eb greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.
Thank you I added this code just changed the image size and boom… looks good 
Thank you.
Only one more thing I would like to know, when there is a lot of product images the customer must scroll down on the images before they can see the product description, I would like for the product description also to be scrolled down at the same time as the images… not sure if you understand what I mean check my website https://www.mommiesbestmall.com/products/dupioni-silk-dress and start scrolling I want both the images and the description side to be scrolled at the same time, how can I do that?
