Etsy image sizes overview
Etsy displays images in several contexts, including search results, product listings, shop pages, and order receipts. While Etsy supports multiple image sizes, using recommended dimensions helps prevent unexpected cropping and ensures images remain sharp on both desktop and mobile.
Because Etsy automatically generates thumbnails and previews, designing with safe margins and correct aspect ratios is especially important for product images.
Listing image (recommended)
Recommended vs supported sizes
Etsy listing images perform best at 2000 × 1500 pixels, using a 4:3 aspect ratio. This size is optimized for product listings and maintains clarity after Etsy compression.
Best practices for feed visibility
Keep the product centered with space around the edges, as thumbnails are cropped automatically. Clean backgrounds and clear framing help products stand out in search results.
Quality and export considerations
Design at the exact size and export at high quality. Avoid uploading smaller images and scaling them up, as this can reduce sharpness.
Square listing image
Recommended vs supported sizes
Square listing images use 2000 × 2000 pixels with a 1:1 aspect ratio. Etsy supports square images, and they often provide more predictable cropping.
Best practices for feed visibility
Square images appear balanced in thumbnails. Center the product and avoid placing important details near the edges.
Quality and export considerations
Use high-resolution images and export at full size to preserve detail.
Listing thumbnail
Recommended vs supported sizes
Listing thumbnails display at approximately 570 × 456 pixels and are generated automatically from listing images.
Best practices for feed visibility
Since thumbnails are cropped versions of listing images, ensure the main subject remains clearly visible in the center area.
Quality and export considerations
Design listing images with thumbnails in mind rather than creating thumbnails separately.
Shop icon
Recommended vs supported sizes
Etsy shop icons should be uploaded at 500 × 500 pixels using a 1:1 aspect ratio. These images are displayed as circles.
Best practices for feed visibility
Center logos or symbols so they remain visible after circular cropping. Avoid small text.
Quality and export considerations
Simple, high-contrast designs remain clear at small sizes.
Shop banner
Recommended vs supported sizes
Small shop banners use 1200 x 300 pixels, while large shop banners use 3360 × 840 pixels. Both formats are supported depending on your shop layout.
Best practices for feed visibility
Keep text and key visuals centered, as banners scale across screen sizes. Avoid placing important content near the edges.
Quality and export considerations
Design banners at the final dimensions and export at high quality to avoid softness.
Order receipt banner
Recommended vs supported sizes
Order receipt banners display at 760×100 pixels and appear in customer purchase confirmations.
Best practices for feed visibility
Use simple branding and avoid dense text due to the limited height.
Quality and export considerations
Export at exact dimensions to ensure clean rendering.
