What is the minimum eBay photo size?

eBay guidance commonly uses 500 px on the longest side as a minimum, but larger photos are usually better for zoom and buyer confidence.

What size should I export for eBay photos?

Use a high-resolution export such as 1600 px or larger when possible, while keeping the file size manageable.

Can ListingPic detect eBay watermarks or text overlays?

No. ListingPic checks file metadata and lists these as manual picture-policy review items.

Does ListingPic upload my eBay photo?

No. The checker reads image properties locally in your browser.

Checker summary

What this checker actually tests

ListingPic eBay Image Checker is a browser-based product photo preflight tool for ecommerce sellers.
It checks image dimensions, aspect ratio, file size, format, and browser-readable metadata before upload.
It is best suited for eBay Image workflows.
Images are checked locally in the browser and are not uploaded to ListingPic servers for the core checker workflow.
ListingPic is independent and cannot guarantee final marketplace approval.

Why not just resize blindly or upload and hope?

Generic resizers change dimensions but do not flag eBay picture-policy reminders such as watermarks, borders, added text, or zoom-readiness targets. This checker catches file properties locally; condition accuracy and policy-sensitive visuals still need manual review.

Checks run locally in your browser — image content is not uploaded to ListingPic for the core checker workflow.
Separates measurable file checks from manual review reminders so you know what still needs human judgment.
Does not guarantee marketplace approval; final decisions depend on current platform policies.

Common warnings and what to do

Warning	What it means	What to do
Too small	The photo may fail minimum checks or look soft to buyers.	Use a larger source image, ideally around 1600px or more.
File too large	The upload may fail or slow down.	Compress the photo before upload.
Manual watermark/text check	Policy-sensitive visual items cannot be proven from metadata.	Remove borders, watermarks, and added text if needed.
Unsupported format	The uploader may reject the file.	Export a safer JPG or PNG version.

How to fix image issues after checking

If the file is too small, export a larger photo. If it is too heavy, compress it. Review watermarks, borders, text, and used-item condition accuracy before publishing.
