Tips

  • Recommended header image size is 208 x 66 pixels

  • For the Home page slideshow, upload high-quality images with a resolution of at least 1000 pixels or larger. Keep the focus towards the center to avoid important details being cropped out. Images will be scaled automatically based on the visitor's browser size.

  • Neat works best with large, high-quality product images - upload high-resolution images in the 1000-pixel range or larger

  • Enable collections by clicking Settings in the Design section, then scroll down and click

    Enable collections. When you've done that, you'll notice your product pages are now sorted by collections (categories), so customers can browse products by their assigned collection.

  • Use the Home page slideshow to advertise discounts or show off detailed product shots

  • Use the Home page welcome message or announcement text feature to advertise promotions, tell your company’s story, or simply say hi to your customers
