When you upload your image files, we check them to confirm that they meet technical file requirements. Files that don't meet these requirements aren’t uploaded to your listings.
Additionally, if the images on your product listings are found to be non-compliant with Amazon's policies, including the product detail page rules, the product listings may be removed from search until you provide a compliant image.
