Why are photos sizes, style and order changing?
I have noticed that since trademe started recently to 'improve" their system often the photos submitted are not presented in the same size/style or order.
how can you stop trademe changing things like this.
the recent 'improvements' are bad enough...

Hello Bernie,
TradeMe has messed up the size, and much of the image information so they cut critical amounts of details off and cannot be viewed properly. Also often the images will not be added to a listing correctly either. TradeMe staff often try to gaslight users and refuse to fix these major image issues e.g. in a lot with lots of small items the New Look edits will remove many of the items being sold so users cannot see them and think lots are much smaller or that the seller is purposely trying to hide details (which as a person who takes detailed item images for others is frustrating).
To see an image properly to show what is being sold click or tap on an image and then right click (or hold) and select 'open image in new tab" then in the url of the new tab e.g. "https://trademe.tmcdn.co.nz/photoserver/full/2140465123.jpg" update the part that reads 'full' to 'plus' to be able to see the image correctly and zoom in to the details. This would need to be done for each image you want to see properly. TradeMe has also removed the ability to select images on many of the pages as well so you would need to inspect the page code and control click on the image url in the page code to view it in a new tab.
Sadly TM images will be horribly cropped removing details on the sales search page, listing page, watchlist page, won, sold & lost pages.

sadly so many things are going wrong and nobody feels responsible to stope that nonsense.

Seems it is more of a hack..than improvements.
Maybe someone grumbled about all the overseas sellers obfuscating our commerce with spam listings, using AI to upload multiple listings under multiple accounts headed by the same outfit.It is very obvious, spam has become a big problem shopping, the products don't exist most of the time, but printed out on order, and then customers details harvested. The site needs a large overall, but it is questionable now who has shares in Trademe that allows this behaviour.
