Resize Photos for Etsy Listings
Etsy's Help Center recommends listing photos that are at least 2,000 pixels wide and tall, and says the first photo should be landscape or square. This preset makes 2,667 × 2,000 pixel (4:3) JPGs and keeps each one under 1 MB.
Etsy photo rules, in plain English.
What Etsy's own Help Center says, and how this preset follows it.
- Size: Etsy recommends photos at least 2,000 pixels in width and height for the best zoom and placement in search.
- First photo: should be landscape or square so the center of the image survives the square, portrait and landscape thumbnail crops. Keep your product in the middle.
- Smallest first photo: Etsy shows listings lower in search if the first photo is under 635 × 635 pixels.
- File type: JPG, PNG or GIF. JPG gives the smallest files for product photos.
Prefer square thumbnails? Change the dimensions to 2,000 × 2,000.
What size should Etsy listing photos be?+
At least 2,000 pixels wide and tall, according to Etsy's Help Center. This preset uses 2,667 × 2,000 (4:3 landscape), so the short side still meets that advice.
Square or landscape for the first Etsy photo?+
Either. Etsy asks for landscape or square first photos and crops thumbnails from the center, so avoid placing the product near an edge.
Why keep files under 1 MB?+
Smaller files upload faster from a phone and load faster for shoppers. A 2,667 × 2,000 product photo usually fits under 1 MB as a quality JPG.
Can I resize all my listing photos at once?+
Yes. Add up to 20 photos and download them together as a ZIP.
