Wix Stores: Setting How Store Images Are Displayed

Displaying great product images is one of the most important keys to e-Commerce success.

How images look in your store depends on the images you upload (the resolution, aspect ratio, etc.) and how you set image to be displayed in your store.

This article will walk you through the image resizing and ratio options available in your editor.

In this article, learn more about:

Understanding image resizing

Where images are displayed, you'll see two resizing options: Crop and Fit.

Crop

Images are cropped so that they are all the same size. If you upload images in different sizes and with different aspect ratios, part of the image may be cut off.

Fit

If you select the fit option, the entire image is displayed and keeps it's original aspect ratio. Images in your gallery will not have the same aspect ratio unless the original images had them.

Tip:

To create a Product Gallery with a clean look featuring same-size images, and to avoid any images being cut off, we recommend uploading images with the same aspect ratio when creating your products.

Understanding image ratio

Image ratio, also known as aspect ratio, is how wide an image is in relation to how tall it is. When selecting a setting, take into consideration the layout you choose for the Product Page, Category Page, or Product Gallery.

For example, the classic layout in the Product Page supports all image ratios. Other layouts look best with wider images.

Tip:

For viewing on a mobile device, the recommended image ratio is 1:1 (a square picture).
