Google is disapproving my listings, image size too small maybe?

I’ve been getting items disapproved buy google shopping lately and from the forums I think it’s because my images are too small. I’ve tried uploading the images again but they are still under 200 pixels in size. The original images on my computer are all over 2500 pixels in size.

First question, Is disapprove a real word?

Is the image size why Google is disapproving my listings?

If this is the problem then how do I change the size of my images?

I’ve contacted support and if nobody can answer me before they do I’ll post the answer so everyone can see it.

Thank you,

Steve

2. Possibly. Google does require certain sizes and information. Here’s the link you need to [URL removed] [URL removed]

3. Use any graphics program (there are some online) to re-size your image to the required minimum requirements. Keep the image resolution at 72 pixels/inch. Anything higher than that is a waste since online images do not have to have much higher resolution to be viewed (printing images does require much higher resolution to print with good detail).

Good luck.

My original images are all well over 2500 pixels per side, it’s only on the Bonanza listings that they are showing up as under 200 pixels per side. Every other site I sell on has the images over 250 pixels per side which is what Google requires.
