How to add an image gallery to your eBay listing

You can add an image gallery to your eBay listing without having to pay eBay additional fees.

All you need is a subscription at an image hosting service which offers gallery code that is supported by eBay, and at Img.vision we do 😉.

How to video

I’ve recorded a video of how to add an image gallery to your eBay listing:

Steps to add an image gallery to your eBay listing:

  1. Select your images in your Img.vision dashboard
  2. Select “Share images in gallery”
  3. You will see multiple gallery style options
    • These are the styles that eBay supports:
      • Horizontal scroll: there is a large preview and you can scroll through images at the bottom
      • Large thumbnails
      • Masonry: “bricks” of thumbnails that fill up spaces caused if some images are smaller
      • Image list: large images one after another
  4. Select your gallery style and copy the code
  5. Go to your eBay gallery listing
  6. In the description, type out your text and choose after which sentence to place the gallery
  7. Next to the description box choose “Show all options” and accept the popup
  8. Enable HTML checkbox
  9. Find the sentence after which you want to show the gallery in the HTML code.
    • The tricky part is to add the gallery code between the right HTML tags. Between something angled brackets pointed left and right towards each other is good.
    • Or also after the angled bracket after the single word “br”.
    • You can add as many linebreaks that you’d like in HTML edit mode, they won’t add extra space to the description when visitors see it.
  10. Paste you code. You can disable the HTML checkbox to see your description in normal mode again.

Tip: Resize your images before adding them to your listing

You may want to resize your images before adding them to a gallery. Photos taken by a camera, even a smartphone camera can have a huge amount of pixels. On desktop, and definitely on mobile, the dimensions will be too large to fit on the screen.
