And do you have a recommendation for the photo size for the background preview image?

 

Our plugin works with png images of the same size with transparent backgrounds. Recommended size for the PNG images is 1500px X 1500px. Squares work best in general.

 

Each png image represents a transparent layer with the product component on the product preview. The software stacks images automatically – showing different product parts on top of each other. You can create a full representation of the product and offer a true ‘Build Your Own Product’ experience.

 

Here is a folder with sample product images: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BxXbvqoSPF5FMEFrdEdvejYxZk0

We have one store that also uses transparent layers to recolor the base product wireframe: gatcreek.com – one layer for base, 1 layer for grain, 1 layer for different colors.

Please note that if you upload big images (for example 3500x3500px) each more than 1 MB the custom product page will LOAD VERY SLOW. So please use smaller images (up to 1500px).
