When you upload images to Shopify, the platform removes the image's color profile, including the popular sRGB profile. This can cause noticeable color shifts, as Shopify assumes the image is in sRGB but no longer retains the actual color profile. As a result, the colors may look different from what you originally intended.
To avoid this issue, it's important to prepare images without relying on color profiles like sRGB.
