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 and open an item in the Listing form (see 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.

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

If you revert to the original after removing the background, the credit is not refunded — the AI processing already occurred.

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

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.

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.
