GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) is a file format that can display animation; although, unlike videos, it doesn’t have any sound. It’s a raster format which allows multiple images to be combined in one file. Plus, there’s some information about how long each image should be displayed for. Animated GIFs work similarly to a flipbook – they contain a series of related images. When their sequence is played, they create an effect of a video. Except there’s no sound, and they tend to be of a quite low resolution.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a raster file format, which utilizes compression to store data. It was developed by a group of photography experts, hence its name. JPG is one of the most common and widely used formats for storing and sharing photos and other kinds of images. This format is all over the place in digital photography, web graphics, social media and print media, and for all image editing and manipulation.

Or maybe you’re not a complete newbie on eBay and have already sold some stuff. But the sales are rather slow, and you have to wait for months and months before a single item actually sells. Well, photos in your listings might be the culprit.
