How it works
Three steps
One run, one folder per platform.
Step 2
Tick platforms
Etsy, eBay, Shopify, Instagram and Gumroad are built in. The preview shows each platform's size, crop or padding.
Step 3
Export
Each platform gets its own folder of resized, renamed files, with a report of what was done to every photo.
What it takes care of
The fiddly parts
The things that are easy to get wrong by hand.
Rules
Sizes with sources
Every built-in preset records the platform help page it was taken from and the date it was checked. You can copy a preset and change it.
Safety
Originals untouched
Exports always go to a new, dated folder. Nothing is overwritten and your source photos are only ever read.
Names
Tidy file names
Set a naming pattern once and see every new name in a table before you export.
Marks
Watermarks, where allowed
In the paid version, add your own text or logo watermark. It is left off for eBay, whose picture policy does not allow watermarks.
Warnings
Too-small photos flagged
A photo smaller than a platform's size is never stretched. It is exported as it is and pointed out.
Get SnapShelf.
The download is the whole app. It runs as the free version until you enter a license key.
Windows 10 and 11
Download the installer 27 MBOr the zip version (37 MB): unzip and run, nothing installed.
Linux
Download the AppImage 71 MBMark it as runnable, then open it. Or the tar.gz (76 MB). Needs a desktop at least as new as Ubuntu 22.04.
Windows will say “Windows protected your PC”. Here is why, and what to do.
SnapShelf is new and its installer is not yet signed with a publisher certificate, so Windows warns the first time you run it. In the blue box, choose More info, then Run anyway.
If you would like to be sure the file is the one published here, compare its SHA-256 checksum with the published list. In a terminal: certutil -hashfile SnapShelf-Setup-1.0.1.exe SHA256

Pricing
$4.99, once. No subscription.
Free version
Up to 10 photos per run
Every platform, the live preview, file naming and your own presets. SnapShelf never stamps a mark of its own on your photos.
Licensed
$4.99, one time
No limit on photos, and you can add your own text or logo watermark. One license, for use on two of your computers.
Your photos stay on your computer.
SnapShelf does all its work on your own machine. There is no account, no upload and no usage tracking. It goes online for two things only: to confirm a license key, and once a day to ask this website whether a newer version exists. That check sends nothing about you or your photos, and you can turn it off: in the app, open the Help menu and untick “Check for updates automatically”. SnapShelf keeps working when you are offline.
Try before you buy.
The free version exports real, full-quality files, so you can test SnapShelf on your own photos before paying anything. If you buy and it is not right for you, write to night.dev.art@gmail.com: refunds are handled case by case, and any rights you have under your local consumer law are not affected.
After you buy.
Payment is handled by Stripe, who also send your receipt. Straight after paying you are shown your license key: save it, because it is not sent by email. In SnapShelf, choose Help, then License…, paste the key and press Activate. To move the license to another computer, remove it from the old one in the same box first. Lost your key? Write to night.dev.art@gmail.com with your receipt.
