Why is my product image blurry in Dawn theme's collage?

[dylan123]

Hi, I currently have the Dawn Theme’s Media Collage on my homepage. I’m using 1 product block and 2 image blocks.

The image blocks are high quality, but for some reason, the product block is making my product image blurry. When you click into the product, the image is high quality, so not really sure why its changing on the collage.

Grateful for any support on fixing this issue

Thanks in advance!

@dylan123 - can you please share the page link where you have this issue?

Hi! its laurelway.us

@dylan123 - I can see that your original image is 360x360 and it is been stretched and hence it is blurred, I recommend to use higher quality image with 1000x1000 dimensions

The image i’m using is 2048 × 2048!

@dylan123 - please open page in customize settings and check i0f there is any setting then which is reducing image dimensions, because as you can see in above link, that is the image which is been used and it is 360x360 resulting in blurry images

[dylan123]

The image is pulling straight from a product on my site because its a product block. And the product image uploaded is 2048x2048. Attached a photo.

The settings in customize settings are pretty limited so I don’t see anything that would be downsizing the image. Attached a photo for this as well!

@dylan123 - any setting where it can be set for desktop view or mobile view , something like that?

Because I think this collage is mobile specific, on mobile will look good and not that good on desktop

[dylan123]

I mean, I’m able to view the customization screen as mobile, but I honestly doubt the collage is mobile specific as there’s no way to hide It on desktop. Plus, the image is still being blurred on mobile

I believe something in the code is causing the image to be downsized above certain dimensions

@dylan123 - check collage section settings, check if any code you see which is downgrading the images

[dylan123]

I’ve been trying to, but I don’t really know how to read code, which is why I’m posting here to get some help!

@dylan123 - can you add me to your site? I can try to check it, I can send collab request

[LitCommerce]

Hi @dylan123 ,

Please send me the code of product-card.liquid file, I will check it for you

[dylan123]

Not sure if this will affect speed or if any issues will arise later, but It seems like I was able to figure It out for now. Collage is now crisp.

Removed all the if statements except for one in each section, so that any width over 165 corrects to 2048px.

• Before

• After

Thank you @LitCommerce ! Please see my solution below.

I think I figured It out by not letting Shopify compress my images, but would love to hear your thoughts.

Do you think my solution could cause any issues to arise in the future?

Hi @dylan123 ,
In what section of the code is this? Is it collage.liquid?

And since then, did any issues arised?

Thanks!

[thedarlingarden]

Not OP, but in the Dawn theme I found this code under snippets > card-product.liquid and can confirm that the accepted solution above works. Instead of setting the width to 2048px, I deleted all the lines except the 1066px to save on load times for the image resolution. I haven’t seen any issues so far.

This worked for me too. The images take a blip to load now, but it’s better than it being completely blurred up

Hey, for me it still doesn’t work. I changed it to only 1066 and deleted the other code but the image is still blury. This is my code:
