If you are going to add actual photos to a vehicle with stock photos in Inventory it is best to remove the stock images first.  After removing stock images make sure to hit Save before clicking Upload to add actual photos. Refer to the Delete Vehicle Photos article for more information.

Photo Suggestions

If you have stock images it is best to remove the stock images before loading actual images, otherwise the images will append to (show up after) the stock images.
 
Images need to be taken in a 4x3 aspect ratio.
 
The largest photo size acceptable is 1024x760.

 

Our standard size images for most third parties post is 640x480.
 
Overlays are only applied on the 640x480 and smaller sized images so they can be removed if needed in the future when uploaded by the dealer in Dominion Inventory Solutions.

 

Renaming the file is only important for batch uploads. If uploading one car at a time for a vehicle it is not required  to rename the files. Refer to Add Multiple Vehicle Photos for more information.

 

Images will go out in data feeds in the order you see them. If you want to change the order simply drag and drop your images into the desired order in the Reorder tab.
