Pics question

[AnneLondezGlass]

I have been toying with the idea of revamping my pics layout and here is the result.
I'm not sure if it brings anything or not. What do you think ? The new layout is the first pic, the old one the others.

Personally I'm not a fan. I think the background is too dark for my liking and when I click on the picture I'm not a fan of the border around the outside, I also wish your pictures were a little more crisp. You have really beautiful jewelry, but it's hard to see when it's blurry.

Tweaked it a bit more but I'm reaching the limits of my camera. Anybody else ?

Annie, I really like the second shot in that listing, and I don't think they're blurry. But I'm on a mobile device right now, so there may be a difference.

I'm with Angie. I don't like the dark background or the border around the picture. I would prefer it to be just the picture. It would make the item stand out a bit more.

I agree w/ Angie, they need to be a tad sharper, maybe closer up on some. I like the 2nd image better. The border is distracting and so is the grainy gray background. It would be best to invest in a better camera and to learn it's functions to suit you best.

Anne, I like the other photos in your listing better than the first.

I like the way it is hanging
but the background is the same color as your charm's main bead and it's distracting
I would test softer backgrounds, try something with cream tones or something similar maybe.
l like the ones you have now too but if you want to make a change it's not bad to experiment :)

I'd have to agree with other posters, I don't like the dark background. I think the best shots are the second one and the last one as far as clarity but I like that it is hanging in the first one (as that is how necklaces are suppose to be). Here is a great link to make your own light box that will help with brightness:

It is very easy and has been a big help with my photos for brightness and a steady background. By the way, love your shop, you have some beautiful pieces!

I don't much care for the dark background or the border.
