Is photo-shopping photo background allowed?
 

I would like to photoshop my photos so that the background is more 1 color type (like almost white). The goal is to make the product pop.

I won't edit any of the product area. Is this allowed at eBay?

Technically, no editing is allowed.

But you won't get in trouble by editing your photos to have a white background. They prefer professional-looking photos so they can use your photos in their catalog.

Its not something eBay will give you bother about

Sounds great.
I was worried they would have software that detects photos that are edited and then the system triggers them for manual review or something..

But this is good news to me:)

26 trillion photos, nobody is going to manually review any of them. They're too busy giving bad answers to sellers who call in.

Adjusting your photo isn't a problem.

Adjusting it so it looks better than it is or looks like something it isn't will be a customer problem, not direct an EB issue.
