Regional workflow
- 01
Check the current Etsy upload screen and note its accepted format, pixel dimensions and file-size limit.
- 02
Open the Watermark Tool, apply the recommended settings above and keep the preview focused on sharp edges, transparency and reusable design assets.
- 03
Download a separate copy, reopen it and test it in Etsy before replacing the original.
Quality and privacy
Keep a reusable master and record the settings that worked for Etsy.
Create each revision from the master instead of repeatedly recompressing an exported copy.
Before publishing, check transparency, orientation, faces, names, license plates and GPS metadata.
Check both light and dark areas so the mark remains readable. Keep the untouched original until the final file has been accepted at its destination. Platform image requirements can change. The current upload screen always takes priority.
