Image Guidelines
1. Product Image Requirements
For each product, it is mandatory for the sellers to upload quality pictures. The process is a ‘Must’ for TooFav because, we promise our buyers to provide them quality products. Therefore, it is recommended to provide at least 5 pictures and 3 videos for each product to be sold. Good quality pictures make it easy for the customers to evaluate the products. Thus, images must be clearly captured, have adequate amount of information and make attractive for the online buyers.
The first image is the ‘Main’ image that is showcased to the customers as they proceed with the searching. As it is the main image that shows the product for sale, it must have a white background while the product should fill the image frame perfectly. The rest of the images must be portrayed in different angles, with different features while using the background environment.
2. Issues For Images
Your image files are examined when you upload them to make sure they adhere to technical file specifications. These prerequisites must be met in order for files to be uploaded to your listings. When many vendors submit photographs, TooFav will give preference to the ones that adhere to the style manuals and guidelines.
Your TooFav product listings may be removed from search results until a compliant image is produced if the images do not meet these product image requirements or do not abide by the Selling Policies and Seller Code of Conduct.
