### **2, Section settings:**

Click on the **Image banner** section to open the section settings

* **Image**: Add an image for the desktop view. This image will display as the main background for the banner section. *Recommended dimensions: 1920 x 1080px* to ensure high resolution across larger screens.
* **Mobile image**: Upload a separate image specifically for mobile view to optimize visuals on smaller screens. If a mobile image isn’t uploaded, the desktop image will automatically be used for mobile as well. *Recommended dimensions: 1000 x 500px* for better fit on mobile devices.
* **Image link**: Assign a URL link to the image banner. When a visitor clicks on any part of the image, they’ll be directed to the specified URL.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note***: If buttons are added to the banner, the image link will be disabled to prevent conflicts between clickable elements.*
{% endhint %}

* **Image overlay opacity**: Control the transparency of a color overlay on the image, adjustable from 0% to 100%. Increasing opacity can help improve text readability on the banner by darkening the image slightly. Select an overlay effect to style the image banner:
