# Photo Editing and Management
Good photos sell items. Nifty provides free editing tools, AI background removal, and per-marketplace photo selection to help your listings stand out.
### Where to find it
Go to the [**Inventory Manager**](https://docs.nifty.ai/inventory-management/inventory-manager) and open an item in the **Listing form** (see [Creating and Editing Items](https://docs.nifty.ai/crosslisting/creating-and-editing-items)). Click any photo to access editing options.
### Free editing tools
Basic editing tools are available at no cost:
| Tool | What it does |
| -------- | ------------------------------------- |
| Crop | Trim edges or reframe the shot |
| Filter | Apply preset adjustments |
| Finetune | Adjust brightness, contrast, and more |
| Annotate | Overlay with arrows, shapes, or text |
| Frame | Add a border around the edges |
| Redact | Blur sensitive information |
| Rotate | Fix orientation |
| Flip | Produce a mirror image |
These tools don't use [**Smart Credits**](https://docs.nifty.ai/crosslisting/smart-credits).
### Background removal
Nifty uses Photoroom to remove cluttered backgrounds, replacing them with clean white.
1. Hover over a photo and click **Edit**.
2. Click **Remove Background**.
3. Photoroom processes the image and shows the result.
**Cost:** 1 **Smart Credit** per photo
{% hint style="info" %}
If you revert to the original after removing the background, the credit is not refunded — the AI processing already occurred.
{% endhint %}
### Per-marketplace photo selection
You can choose different photos or a different photo order for each marketplace.
#### When creating a listing
1. Add your photos at the top of the form as normal.
2. For each marketplace, click **Select photos** to update the selection or order.
3. When you publish, Nifty respects the per-marketplace choices.
This is useful when:
* One marketplace has a photo limit (Depop allows fewer than eBay)
* A certain photo works better as the cover on one platform
* You want to exclude a photo from a specific marketplace
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** If you don't customize photos per marketplace, Nifty will take as many as we can for the marketplace. For example, for Depop we'll take the first 8 photos, as only 8 are allowed.
{% endhint %}
#### When editing an existing listing
When you reopen the **Edit item** form, Nifty does not preserve the per-marketplace view. Instead, you'll see a representative collection of photos at the top.
**Important behavior:**
* If you don't change the photos while editing, your listing photos stay exactly as they were on each marketplace.
* If you do make changes, you'll see a green **Changes detected** indicator.
When you see the **Changes detected** indicator, you may want to reselect photos per marketplace before saving — otherwise your changes apply uniformly.
### What you can't do
| Limitation | Details |
| ----------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Bulk edit photos | Background removal can be done in bulk, but regular edits cannot |
| Choose background color | Removal result is always white |
| Edit the AI removal | Can't manually adjust what AI kept or removed |
