# How to Add Image Templates Banner to the Dawn Theme

> Source: https://section-shop.com/theme-guides/dawn/add-image-templates-banner/ — Section Shop, 56 free native Shopify sections. Install: https://apps.shopify.com/section-shop

Two-column layout with scrolling image gallery and pricing box. Features animated vertical image columns, trusted brands badge, benefits list with icons, deal countdown styling, and logo strip section. This guide shows how to add the Image Templates Banner section to the Dawn theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Dawn's code. Dawn is a free theme by Shopify, known for speed, minimalism, being the Online Store 2.0 reference — and hero & banners like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Image Templates Banner fits Dawn

First-impression sections: hero layouts, promotional banners and rotating showcases that make visitors stop scrolling. On Dawn, Image Templates Banner slots in like any built-in section: it inherits the theme's fonts by default, picks up your color choices in the editor, and lives alongside Dawn's own sections in the picker — prefixed "SShop:" so it's easy to spot.

## Steps

1. **Install Section Shop (free)** — Add the app from the Shopify App Store. It's free, carries the Built for Shopify badge, and changes nothing in your Dawn setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Image Templates Banner” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Hero & Banners category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Dawn theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Dawn uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Dawn theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Templates Banner” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Dawn font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Image Templates Banner work with the Dawn theme?

Yes. Dawn is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Image Templates Banner installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Dawn's theme editor as “SShop:Templates Banner”, alongside the theme's own sections.

### Will Image Templates Banner match Dawn's design?

By default the section inherits your theme's fonts, so it picks up Dawn's typography automatically. Colors, spacing, images and content are all editable in the theme editor — no CSS required.

### Is Image Templates Banner free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Image Templates Banner is free, like every section in the 56-section library. Once added it's a standard theme file: if you uninstall the app, the section stays in your Dawn theme and keeps working.
