BBZ Image ToolsStart with a consistent photo sequence
A catalog is easier to build when every lot follows the same pattern. Photograph the whole item first, then useful details: maker marks, labels, damage, and accessories. Keep all photos for one lot together before moving to the next. For paired items or sets, include a group photograph that makes the quantity clear.
Save the original camera files in a separate folder. Work on copies so you can return to the original detail if a buyer asks a question or an edited photo looks wrong.
Prepare the files with the desktop tool
Use the free Windows tool to rename, resize, crop and convert your working images. Choose a naming convention you can keep throughout the sale. Lot numbers and image sequence numbers are easier to follow than camera filenames.
Check a small sample before applying a rename pattern to the entire folder. Confirm that the order stays correct and that the new names still distinguish multiple photos for the same lot. Leave enough resolution to show marks and condition clearly.
Remove backgrounds selectively
Use online background removal when a busy setting distracts from the item. Keep an original reference photo alongside the edited version. Examine delicate edges, clear glass, handles and spaces between parts. A clean image is useful only if it still represents the object accurately.
Condition photographs often benefit from their original setting. Do not hide scratches, repairs or missing parts while making the cover image look cleaner.
Build the catalog and review every lot
Upload your prepared lot photos to the catalog builder. Let AI draft the details, then review the title, description, category and other suggested fields. Confirm quantities, dimensions and condition against the item itself. A photograph alone may not establish age, authenticity, material or working condition.
After approval, export the CSV and numbered photos. Check a few lots in your auction software before importing the entire sale. The final review should confirm that each description belongs to the correct photos.
