Ebay Pixels Warnings: A Little Help Appreciated

I keep getting warnings from eBay that some of my pictures (scans) are not large enough..."Photos must be at least 500 pixels on the longest side". Apparently this requirement will kick in on July 1. I have been scanning bigger but am still getting warnings, although not as many. Any suggestions for settings that would make sure I get the 500 pixels they require. On auctions, my scans don't look any smaller than other auctions from what I can tell.

Thanks for any help.

    It seems like I always get the little warning flag when I use a scan from my scanner. When I use a picture taken with my iPhone, it seems to work fine. I probably need to adjust something on my scanner. Maybe it's just because it's 12 years old!


    Thanks

    PSARICH,
    I got the same message from ebay on seven of my listings. All were on raw cards that
    look like the scans are decent sized. I guess the only thing to do is to recrop/size my original
    scans and put up large images, or let ebay just end them on July 1st. I could care less at this point.

    It seems like every two months, there's a new wrinkle to selling on ebay, if
    it's not picture size, it's you have to offer one-day shipping and a 14 day return policy to still receive your
    sellers discount. Or, you can only state you take paypal only on your listings, yet I see hundreds of other sellers
    say they take money orders too. Or it's messages while your listing, saying your shipping is too high,
    when you are charging only $8 to ship out a $700 card. WTF. It just never ends.
