If we use Vendio to list.
From what I understand that starting in October, if the photo isn't the right size, your item will not relist.
Anyone else concerned with this???

Hello,

It doesn't matter where you list from - eBay will start requiring that your item photo be at least 500 pixels for one of the dimensions.

For your images ebabestreasures, note that even the oldest photo in your account from 2008 exceeds this yet to be enforced requirement.

In reality if you take your own pictures you would be hard pressed to make one under 500 pixels on at least one dimension unless you did some serious editing/resizing prior to uploading it for use on the web. Even the old Sony Mavica camera's took larger resolution images than this when digital camera's first became popular.


Regards,
Chris

Hello,

They are fantastic machines. As long as you still have a computer with a working floppy drive - your gold.

Thanks I feel much better now.

I still use a Sony Mavica but one with a memory stick. I have a newer camera but I love this one. Sometimes I use my phone's camera and can upload directly to ebay from my phone.

My floppy plugs into a usb port.
I even have a spare Mavica for when the original dies.

I thought I was the only one that still had a Sony Mavica! I like how the pictures turn out on it better than my digital camera.

Still have my Mavica FD75 too. Takes much better macro shots than my Nikon Coolpix.

On the topic of pictures....I use vendio for making my listings. Now that ebay has free pictures, is there anyway move away from uploading pictures to Vendio. Seems like I spend a lot of time deleting pics from Vendios image hosting so that I stay under the maximum storage allowed.
