Display & Print eBay Photos
 
Was wanting to copy some eBay photos and discovered that either the seller or eBay can prevent that, apparently.
I found a link that will allow downloading all photos on any listing. A nifty tool
.
Display & Print eBay Photos

Another very handy utility is named "iSkysoft iTube Studio" which you start before you decide to watch Youtube videos such as concerts, car stuff, etc, etc. It allows saving as an MP4 file and then can be viewed on you PC or loaded onto a solid state drive and viewed on a box like the Vizio Co-Star. If needed software such as "Handbrake" can be used to resize the videos and/or remove extra languages, etc.

The cheapskate way is to open the picture up, hit print screen, paste it into MS paint, crop it and save it as a *.jpg file.

For some eBay ads you just can't do that because of what I've read about what the seller and/or eBay can do to prevent it.
I didn't want a photo of the thumbnail...and when I click to enlarge it won't save or copy/paste. Now with some ads it will allow me to just click to enlarge and then "Save Image", etc.
And the link that I posted has a variety of great features regarding size and definition.

Print screen grabs the entire screen. The enlarged picture is just part of that lot. Has nothing to do with the single picture. It's just what is on your screen that is stashed to the clipboard. Open up MS Paint, which you have if running Windows, and paste.

You crop out the rest of the screen because there is fluff you don't need.

That said, I have not tried it recently. Bet it works, though.

Yes, I know all about Print Screen. What I wanted and got was high resolution photos.
Thanks

Cool beans. Print screen will be lean.

I use snipping tool built into windows to get individual pics or parts of screen.

How high is the resolution on ebay photos? I always upload 72 ppi and my photos look fine. Same here on PPOT. Is ebay capable of storing higher res photos?

I don't know. I do know that some seller's ads will not allow a 'save as' or a copy & paste from the enlarged photos of the thumbnail photos. Other ads will.
The latest ad would not allow me to make a copy of the photos...I searched on Google and lots of complaints and requests for solutions. One link went to an eBay discussion group and that's where I found that link.
It worked great for me and I didn't have to do any screen shot and then cut away any unwanted information & imaging.
