Photos undergo degradadion when loaded

[chez-desir]

Do all of you sellers experience photo problems when creating a listing? My images are edited  in camera and/or PC to be clear crisp and to have vibrant color. After being loaded the colors turn muddy and the lighting can't be re corrected to it's original.  If it's universal is there something ebay could do?

 I wonder too if those that use 3 party services like Autciva see better clarity after loading pages.

Another issue is the time lag to edit on the listing page, if you have 24 and they are all too dim, lost time. Pix look pro on my device and less than amateur in the listing. Thanks to all who took the time to read.

Looks like you are here to just advertise your listings. I peeked (wish I hadn't), and there is nothing wrong with your pictures.

I cannot tell you how to take photos but i looked at your listings and they look good. Color seems ok to me. Granted i have not seen them live but i thought they looked good.

Jpeg files are compressed files. The compression is "lossy" there is some loss of quality of the image associated with compression.

Your camera may be set up to compress to a greater extent than other cameras. You may be able to change the extent of compression.

Images are often resampled and recompressed when uploaded to marketplace sites.

Pictures which are compressed to a greater amount may lose quality when recompressed.

Your photos look ok to me.  They're very clear.  I'm not real big on all the background noise, but that's just me.  eBay does offer a pretty good photo editor.  If you go to the photo you inserted, on the left hand top side of the frame you'll see a little pencil (run your curser over it).  Click on it & go from there.  You can brighten, contrast, sharpen, crop and even remove the back ground if you like.  Next time you list an item take a look and perhaps experiment with that feature.  You might be surprised.  Have a great day!

Happy Clicking and Selling!

There's a work around for your problem...I'm driving, when I stop I'll post.

To all of you posting that op's photos are fine, its because he's using the desktop as a temporary workaround.  The compressed photos loaded through the app can't be used...photos are too blurry.

FWIW, your photos show up very sharp and clear on my android with no loss of detail that I can see (also compared them to my desktop). Nice items!

Thanks for that info but I'm already doing that-I can fix some of light not all and no color. pix look acceptable but originals looked excellent

I'm seeking to know if all have this problem and ways to fix. Not looking to promote or offend

[chez-desir]

I just began to load from phone thru app. In the past I used a Canon and desktop and the same issue occurred-I'll read thru that work around, thank you

The method outlined works; I've used it myself.

The compressed, blurry image began when I started performing searches using images, but, there are other ways image compression can be triggered.

If you can, come back here and let us know the results.  Thanks.

I use a 23 Ultra for pix and the app-photos look great in the app. I also use the PC to complete the listing. I'm sure my issue is the display brightness setting was set to save eye fatigue so this dummy has no real problem. Thank you for your replies.
