Hi, Just back afer a few months away from selling. Listed 3 quick auctions and lucky to have a bid on one quickly. Now I've just noticed there is a note on the "my ebay" page telling me to edit my photos to comply with the new photo size requirements. I didn't know that there was a new requirement when I listed but obviously I do now. My question is...will they let these 3 auctions complete (3 days left) or will it mess with the sale of the one with a bid on it?
I use Vendio to create and launch my auctions and host my photos. I've tried the little edit thing that ebay has a link to on the notice of size issues, but it won't work for me because my browser is out of date ...and..to complicate things, my computer is too old and won't let me update past the ie7 I now have. I know..what a mess.
What to do about the 3 auctions on now??? Thanks for any help.

They may or may not remove them. Just depends on eBay catching them.
I would let it run its course and see what happens. At the end, just reset your camera to a larger image setting and rephotograph them and change the images.
The photo size issue is creating problems for many sellers, however it is valuable to buyers so they can see magnified details of the item.

I think it will be OK but you never know. At least you have the listing in Vendio so if they stop them you can redo the photos and relist.
Maybe you should write down the bidders ID just in case.

I think your Ebay message is more of an alert to tell you it is too small,but not every one uses a mobile device to view pictures on Ebay,there are still plenty of folks out there sitting in front of a pc.
For those sitting in front of their pc,your pictures are just fine.
I have sold a few nice items to overseas buyers,I think they view them in front of the pc not a smart phone or tablet.
Some day they may,who knows!
