I love Gymboree Clothing

Especially because of the beauty and detail that the Gymboree design team  adds to make the clothing so attractive. I've taken thousands of photos to try and get the perfect shots thats shows all the detail the clothes have to offer.

These are just some of the things that have worked for me. I've found its best to take my photos outdoors. In non direct sunlight. I try to avoid shadows.

I use a large piece of  white, sky blue, or black poster board. You can pick them up and any arts & crafts store.

I lay my pieces on the poster board or boards (sometimes you may need to place two next to each other for larger items such as dresses and long pants) I zoom in for detail and out for a wide shots. I take as many shots as I can and try to use at least 4-6 photos in my listings for each item I'm selling. I try to focus on the Detail of the clothing. I show buttons, collars, front views, back views, waist, cuffs, pockets, etc.

I normally use Googles Picasa 2 to edit and crop my photos. Picasa 2 is a FREE download found in the Google Search tab. Its very user friendly. If your photos are to dark, need more light or contrast, it has awesome easy to use one step features to correct your pictures and make them look amazing.

You can also use the program to make One Step collages and contact sheets. These are great attention grabbing features for your Gallery photos.

If your items are wrinkled. I would use a very low setting on your iron and a protective ironing pad over the topof your Gymboree items so you don't mark or get water mist on the clothing. A light pressing to remove wrinkles will really help your Gymboree items to stand out and show how well you've taken care of the clothing. This can make all the difference in the world to a potential buyer, who only has photos to rely on for they're Buying decisions.

Remember your ebay business is based on how your items are presented. So take care of your clothing and take good photos that show detail.

 Happy selling!
