Image Tips for a Successful Listing

Thumbnails

Use a full, front-facing shot of the item. Ensure the entire item is visible from the front, captured straight on with a clean, minimal background.

Avoid close-ups or rear views. Thumbnails should never be cropped, zoomed-in, or show the back of the item.

Keep it sharp and centered. Use a well lit, high quality portrait image that clearly shows the full item and its details.

Clothing

Take clear images of the front, back, and sides of the garment. The more angles the better.

Capture details like buttons, patterns, tags, defects, or usage marks to give a detailed view.

Mix full garment shots with detailed close-ups to provide balance and give buyers the whole picture.

Footwear

Capture clear shots of the entire shoe from different angles, including front, back, soles, tags, and the box.

Make sure the images are clear enough to show stitching, texture, labels, and any signs of usage. The details matter.

Use bright, even lighting to bring out the shoe's features effectively.

Accessories

Accessories can often be small, so capture multiple angles and close-ups to give buyers the best view.

Use natural lighting and ensure the accessory is presented against a clean, neutral background to avoid distractions or glare.

Buyers want to know exactly what they're buying, so highlight any flaws or unique characteristics that might be hard to see.

Close-up Details Matter

Always include photos of brand labels, care tags, and size tags to provide buyers with important information.

Capture close-ups of fabric textures or unique and detailed patterns to help buyers see the quality.

Take shots from unique angles that show off the product's quality, such as seams or specialized stitching.

Clearly document any usage marks, defects, or wear to set accurate expectations for buyers.

If relevant, include images of the original packaging or box to add value to your listing.
