Etsy Photo Guide: Fix 'Image Too Small' and Upload Errors
Etsy sellers know the struggle. You upload a crisp DSLR photo of your product, and Etsy complains it is too big. Or you upload a phone photo, and it says it is too small.
The Golden Ratio
Etsy recommends images that are 2000px on the shortest side, but if the file size is over 1MB, your listing page will load slowly, causing customers to bounce.
Prepare Your Listings
1. Resize your images so the shortest side is 2000px. 2. Convert them using our Image Converter to standard JPG. 3. This ensures fast loading for customers on mobile data while keeping the zoom-in details sharp.
