Preview uses browser canvas. Export uses server-side sharp, but it reads only the multipart request buffer and does not persist original uploads.

FAQ

  • Do Etsy listing photos have to be square?
    Etsy's official guidance focuses on listing photos being at least 2000 px wide and tall. Square is not mandatory, but it is usually safer for thumbnails and marketplace crops.
  • Which image formats does Etsy support?
    Etsy supports .jpg, .gif, .png, .svg, and .heic files. Animated GIFs and transparent PNG rendering are limited.
  • What export size should I use for Etsy listing photos?
    This tool defaults to 2000 x 2000 px because Etsy recommends listing photos at least 2000 px wide and tall.
  • Can Etsy listing photos have transparent backgrounds?
    Transparent PNGs can render with black areas on Etsy, so review transparency manually before publishing.
  • Does this tool store my Etsy product image?
    No. Image preview runs locally in the browser, and server export does not persist original uploads.

Export guidance

JPEG is usually best for photographic product images. PNG is useful for transparent or graphic assets. WebP can be efficient for storefront performance, but use JPEG or PNG when the target marketplace does not accept WebP.
