Fix eBay listing image size (1600 px gallery)
September 2026
eBay gallery zoom expects sharp files — about 1600 px or more on the longest side. Small phone exports upload but look soft when buyers pinch to zoom.
eBay size failures
| Failure | What to hit |
|---|---|
| Soft gallery zoom | 1600 px or more on the long side |
| HEIC upload | Convert to JPG/PNG first |
| Over-compressed | Re-export with enough quality |
| Tiny source upscale | Shoot or export larger when possible |
1. Check gallery readiness
Run the eBay checker on the listing image. Long-side warnings mean gallery zoom will look soft.

2. Export larger, then re-check
Resize toward 1600 px on the long side without extreme upscaling. Re-check after compression.
