Edit product images to meet marketplace requirements

Introduction

Different marketplaces have different image requirements, including image dimensions, aspect ratios, background colours and the number of images allowed.

Omnivore’s image editing tools allow you to update a product’s marketplace images directly from the Product Details page. You can:

• Crop images
