IMPORTANT: Uploading an image does not attach the image to any product. You must attach the image to the appropriate product after you have uploaded your images. To upload a product image, first click on the ‘Products’ tab in the main menu. [also see: Attaching Images to Products]
This will move you to the ‘List Products’ page, where you can view your entire catalog of products. You will then want to click on the ‘Images’ tab in the sub-menu that appears under the main menu.
You will now be on the ‘List Images’ page, where you can view your uploaded images and add new ones. To add a new image, click on the plus (+) sign where it says ‘Add New Image’ in the upper right.
This will bring you to the ‘Upload Image’ page. You will need to enter some information into the form to upload your image.
Image to Upload - Click the ‘Browse…’ button and find the image on your computer that you want to upload. The image format can be any one of the following types: GIF, JPG/JPEG, PNG, and BMP
Image Name (optional) - This is the name you give your image to easily identify it when looking at the ‘List Images’ page.
Folder Name (optional) - This is a category that you can give your image. It will help when sorting your images in the ‘List Images’ page. Example: “CDs” for audio discs, “DVDs” for video discs.
Image Type - Click on the drop-down menu and select the ‘Product Image (300×300 max)’ option. [also see: Uploading Order Page and Purchase Page Logos]
Auto Resize Image? - Default is selected. This option will automatically resize your image if it is not within the maximum resolution acceptable for the Image Type you have selected. This saves you the time of going through all of your product images and resizing each one.
Auto Convert to JPEG? - Default is selected. This option will automatically convert your image file to a JPEG image.
Once you have filled out the information, click the ‘Submit Form’ button to complete the upload of your product image. If the image uploaded successfully, you will be returned to the ‘List Images’ page and you will see your newly uploaded image at the top of the list.
