Hi, I've been on Etsy for about 10 years and for the most part the listing process has gradually gotten better, but there are a handful of issues that have gotten worse or haven't been resolved. Here are some of the problems I've had in the past few weeks, I don't think I'm alone with these problems (?) but maybe there are work arounds that I'm unaware of.
1. It's so frustrating trying to make the thumbnail picture the right size. It just never stays the way I had adjusted it. I now try to take a picture that will fit into the space without adjustment. This has been a problem for me for years and it hasn't ever gotten any better, if anything it seems worse.
2. Over the past few weeks I've had multiple videos within the listings be replaced with another sellers listing video (?) no idea how or why this has happened. I have over 500 listings, and there probably others that I haven't caught yet.. I don't know how to prevent this from happening. The last one I caught was a bracelet I listed and the video was replace with a Christmas wreath for a door.
3. Today I noticed the 'Materials' used in the listing form were removed if there was a single listed material. The listings I sell are sterling, and if that was the only material used in the item, that was the only material I listed. I don't know when this happened, but I think the work around for me would be to add 'Silver' as a second material.
4. I wish I could rotate a picture within the listing form, this would make life easier...
Sorry, just needed to vent...
