I wish that I had been informed. eBay should never have employees who don’t have the ability to think like a Chess Player [To plan several moves ahead.] I quit my website to return to eBay; now I am quitting eBay to get another Website. with the desire and the ability a Website can be more profitable.
I sell what I know. eBay has people giving suggestions to Sellers, which are insulting to their intelligence, and if used would require so much time to accomplish that a Minimum Wage Job would be much more profitable.
Hopefully a competitor who would be ”Seller friendly, while holding Buyers to holding their end up, too.” … eBya may has well told Sellers to go ahead and expect 15, or so losses to those who won’t pay, because the decent folk are still holding to doing their responsibilities.
Sellers can’t Neg. those who actually deserving of it. / Fees! / Rules / More Fees / and now these Photo Regulations!

Ebay has been slowing deleting my photos, not because of size, (they are 1024×900), and leaving only the first photo in each listing. I have to go back and add everything they have been deleting. Anyone else have this issue?

If eBay expects photos to be to their specs, then they should provide a side-program that lets sellers fix their photos to those specs. I have just spent the last two days trying to list two items, and eBay won’t accept either listing because of the photos, even though I have used my “own” software to change them to 500 dpi. It’s much easier to post to my local selling site. Easy to see that eBay is going to lose a lot of business until they decide to help the seller rather than the buyer. But, if I can’t sell on eBay, it’s a cinch that I won’t be bothering to buy from there either!

E Bay is a disaster, not fun anymore, and too much trouble for what it is worth. They changed their format and it is so much more difficult to get through. And it appears as if it was designed by a third grader. And the suggested prices on products and shipping are an insult to sellers intelligence! In case you are reading this E Bay…shipping has gone up 10 times over your suggested costs!

In reply to Annette Hellingrath. I'm done with eBay. I can't post my photos. Too much wasted time.

In reply to Jim. I revised my ebay listing, deleted existing pictures, changed the pics that I had already taken to be 800 x 600 pixels. This worked fine and now there is magnification.

With a half-decent compact digital camera the picture size in pixels can be set within its menu. The 1600 x 1200 setting will give a file size of around 350Kb which is plenty for practical purposes on a monitor. Maybe this is why Ebay has this preference. The benefits for the Lister is room for more photos in the camera’s memory, faster uploading time and no need for re-sizing.

Cannot figure out how to drag and drop! So time consuming and ridiculous. Was just thinking of selling on eBay full time but not with this mess.
