Hi,
We just crossed a major milestone – 100,000 businesses now use Shopify to power their stores.
I want to thank Mini & Maximus for being store number 3,478 using Shopify.
You might not realize this, but the first Shopify store was my own. Almost a decade ago, I wanted to sell snowboards online. The options for shopping carts were either really expensive, or painfully complicated. Eventually this frustration was channeled into creating Shopify. We set out on a mission: to make ecommerce easier and more affordable, so that anyone could start their own online store.
In the years since, I’ve witnessed thousands of people accomplish life-long dreams of growing their own successful business, and nothing makes me happier. I love seeing all of the incredible things people do with our platform – whether it’s an online shop, at a physical retail store, or even just accepting payments using their mobile phone.
The trust that our merchants place in us is really humbling, and you can be sure that we will continue to work hard to make Shopify even better.
Thank you for being a part of the Shopify community.

Any Shopify experts here that can help me understand how the fuck to stop Shopify compressing uploaded jpg assets so much?
There's no visible settings, I can't see anything within the the themes construction to tweak (though I didn't build the theme so could be missing some obvious flag somewhere).
I tried following guidelines here, but it's making sod-all difference...
https://help.shopify.com/manual/…
:(
- mind you, the guidelines here are borked anyway - try uploading a PNG and watch Shopify spazz out and make it a 3Gb file ...detritus
- service front-en with proper sizes :

storage:
you're fucked, upload clean images with bellow the line compression levels.sted - u can play with img_url asset_img_url, or asset_[whatever]. heres the proper link:
https://help.shopify…sted - what sted said. img_url: '730x1096' Make your dimensions bigger. that's allhotroddy
- I'm at home now, so will check sted's links tomorrow but it's the jpg compression that's causing me problems, not the actual filesizesdetritus
- er.. 'not the actual dimensions' even.detritus
- if you make the dimensions bigger the compression will be less noticeable.hotroddy
- not on the image but in the script referencing the imagehotroddy

I almost hate to ask this.
Is there any place I can look for truly well designed Shopify themes? Google searches lead me to loads of hot garbage. I'm looking for something clean that can serve as solid bones of a fashion brand.
