Problem and result

Fix Stretched Product Images Shopify: Photos That Look Like Your Product

A squashed bottle or a wide, stretched shoe makes a product look cheap and raises doubt about quality. The cause is nearly always how the theme sizes the photo, not the photo itself, so the fix is a setting or a rule rather than a re-upload.

Before

Photos that look squashed or stretched

Product photos look too wide or too tall on the product page. Round items look oval and shoppers wonder if the picture is accurate.

After

Photos in their true shape

The product page shows each photo in its true proportions. The gallery, thumbnails, zoom and cart agree, and a short rule explains how to upload photos in future.

What is included

What Your Distorted Image Fix Includes

When you fix stretched product images, you get the cause, the repair and a check of every place a photo shows.

Implementation checklist

  • A backup and a duplicate theme taken before changes
  • The cause traced to a theme setting, section fit or custom code
  • The product page images repaired to keep their ratio
  • Odd-ratio photos found across your products
  • Gallery thumbnails and the zoom view checked
  • The cart and order email thumbnails checked
  • Checks on phone, tablet and desktop
  • A short rule on photo shape for future uploads

We repair how photos are displayed and do not retouch or reshoot them. Collection page cards are a different task, and photos that are very low in quality may need a replacement, which we point out.

What We Need to Get Fix Stretched/Distorted Product Images Started

We need a way into the store and a few facts about the distorted photo repair, and the options below keep both simple and reversible.

Collaborator access

For the distorted photo repair we only need a collaborator request approved in your admin, because that gives us the access the job needs and nothing more.

No store yet? We build it first

We create the store in our own Shopify Partner account as a development store, finish the distorted photo repair there and transfer ownership to you, so you only pick a plan at the end.

Prefer to share a login?

For the distorted photo repair you may share a staff login instead, though the collaborator route is easier to revoke and is what we usually advise.

A distorted product

Send the address of a product with a stretched photo and a screenshot.

Original photo

Send the original photo if you have it, so we can compare the shape.

One decision maker

A named person to approve the distorted photo repair helps us finish it within the two revision rounds that come with every package.

If you are not sure which route fits your distorted photo repair, tell us in the short form after checkout and we will recommend one.
