Poor images in Preview of New View Item Page
Apr 15, 2009 09:13 AM
When I switch to the Preview of the new View Item Page and click the link to see the larger image, the larger image is much much smaller than the current large images that we have in our listings. In fact the "larger" image that comes up is very unsatisfactory for marketing our items. Even though our original images that are in our listings on our current View Item pages are large, clear, detailed and easy to see.

Our images in the Preview version of our View Item page are not at all like the ones in our current pages. This concerns me. Why are our images looking smaller and not as good in the Preview versions of the page? What is going to happen when the current View Item page switches permanently to the new version? Is this how our images are going to look? If so, that is not good!

I'd just like to request that eBay respond to this question. it was the first one posted this morning when the window opened for this board, over five hours ago, but there's been no response to it by eBay. (I posted a very similar question independently at almost the exact same time, and it also hasn't been answered.)

Ebay, since this special board is available for a very limited time, would you please respond to the questions posted on it? I could understand ignoring them if they were off topic... but this concerns the very first item in the Spring 2009 announcement.

Thanks!

Hi Ginny.

I just posted some info about this on another post on this board: http://forums.ebay.com/db1/topic/41409-Announcements-Discussion/Photo-Are-Too/520113801

There's also a small discussion going on there.

Thank you, Ceril. I did see your answer there and that brought up another question that I asked in that thread.

Thank was fast! Thanks, Ceril!

I guess we know that there are at least two of us who are reading this board today! :)

Doesn't seem to be a lot of questions. Either no one else has questions or they never saw a link to come here or they just don't care?
