You changed an image on your site and it looks cropped? Don’t stress, here’s how to fix it.

Take a look at this section on our site. We have our services all beautifully designed with an image for each one. Let's change this middle one together — I’m choosing this neon plant. And oops, as soon as I upload it, it crops.

We don’t want that!

This is happening because the ratio of the image is different from the bounding box that we have set up. To fix it, let’s go to the image settings right here and click 'reset image'. This automatically adjusts the bounding box size to match the ratio of your image.

You can also play around with the display modes and see what fits your site the most. It’s super easy!

My section is already looking great. But I actually want all three images to be the same height, and resizing crops it all over again. So pro tip: you can actually change the focal point of your photo just by clicking here and dragging the blue dot to what you want to be the middle point. Awesome right?
