Photo resizing for Etsy sellers

See an actual Etsy preset export

We exported the existing SizeSpec wallet demo image with the square and landscape Etsy presets. Compare the original with the exported JPEGs, then download the ZIPs to inspect their dimensions and file sizes.

Both exports enlarge the 1000 × 746 original. That changes the dimensions, not the amount of detail. Resizing keeps the original desk background. File sizes vary with the photo and browser.

Resize photos for Etsy in one batch

1. Open the studio with the Etsy preset selected. Choose square or landscape before adding your photos.
2. Add your originals together. Use Crop to fill to trim the edges, or Fit on white to keep the whole photo with white margins.
3. Export one ZIP, extract the JPEGs and check that the products are sharp and fully visible before uploading to Etsy.

Etsy recommends images at least 2000 pixels wide and tall and accepts landscape or square first photos. These are recommendations for your listing, not a requirement to use SizeSpec's square preset. Read the sourced Etsy image guide for the full details.

A correctly sized file can still have a clipped product or an unsuitable background. SizeSpec resizes, crops and compresses; it does not guarantee listing acceptance. Its file size target is a goal, so check any export warnings.

Why this is slower than it should be

• ·Photos come from different phones and cameras, in different sizes and aspect ratios, and Etsy's Shop Home grid crops them to square.
• ·A listing with the wrong aspect ratio loses the edges of the product in search and category pages.
• ·Resizing a batch of 10-50 photos by hand in Photoshop or Canva before every new listing is slow, and easy to get inconsistent.
