They are great, but I can't figure out how to set them to be the default! When I go to Edit Details, and try to change the Product Merchandising view, the in situs don't show up.

Same. Sometimes it just takes a day or two for these new features to be available to everyone. I will try again tomorrow.

I wanted to create a new pillow with the  "in situ pillows shot" but then no image was showing with a message "image not available."

Um.... does this not look a little ridiculously large to anyone else.... this is what happens if you choose the 20x20 option..

@PenguinPower I actually have a 20x20 pillow from Zazzle that I ordered years ago. It's pretty big, actually. This looks fairly accurate.

This is exactly what was needed! Neutral colors, good light/shadows, crisp product image, thoughtful placing. I couldn't be happier! (and this is something, knowing me lol)

A bit of feedback: not all in situs load immediately, some show the design instead, see pictures. Sure it's a glitch so would be good to fix it as soon as possible as no one of us wants more screenshots taken by thieves.

Unfortunately, when I try to change to one of the new insitus, I'm not able to. I see them on my product page but when I go into "product merchandising" to change, I only get the choice of the old front & back silos. Hoping this bug will be squashed soon, as these new insets are great & I'm looking forward to changing my pillows to those as soon as I can.

Love the new views!  ♥️♥️♥️

Will be great when we can change default views to the one of our choice.

These are so lovely! I wonder if we will get insitus for the Round Pillows as well? And the Accent Pillows. I hope so!

I like the new in-situ pics, too. All of them show up, but one of my collections only shows blank pillows now. I deleted that collection, then recreated it, but that did not resolve the problem.

And, in the new plain pillow in-situ photo, the individual pillow pics are way smaller than the previous pics, so the pillows and artwork are harder to for customers to see. Please bring back the previous larger single pillow photo, because in this case the new photo is not an improvement.

I was unable to use one of the new insitu options for any of my existing pillow designs, so I waited a day to see if I could use this new feature. After one day, I am still unable to change the product merchandizing image to show any of the new insitu examples. Can Zazzle explain how/when we can access this new feature for our existing pillow designs?

Yeah, same here!  I sure would like to change the marketing display option but there is none to select...is this a glitch?

Would it be possible to darken the white couch a bit? Pillows like this one with a white background blend right into the couch. On the left side, you can't tell where the design/pillow ends and the couch starts and the eye is tricked into seeing the couch seam as the edge of the pillow so it looks like the design just randomly stops before the edge of the pillow.

Here, I've reduced the size of the print to illustrate the issue for designs that don't run all the way to the edge of the pillow. I really think the couch needs to be darkened a little or have a subtle pattern to it or just something to provide some contrast to the actual edge of the pillow.

Not a big fan, sorry. 1. The front and back previews look dull & dirty (too much gray layer on them, please fix); 2. The 16" on the blanket/bed looks pretty small (20" looks good but dull - see 1.); 3. The chair one looks ok but the pillow has a yellowish tone on the bottom part and a neutral wall color would be better; 4. I would have preferred a more neutral, modern-classic white couch that looks good with any sort of design, and there is more wall than pillow, especially on the 16" size; and, last but not least, still no front-and-back view.

I would like to be again able to create my own previews. Such stuff - nothing fancy, but crisp & vivid and showing both sides:

 

Edit - Added one more example:

I figured out why some of the new plain front and back in-Situ pillow photos show up so small with a lot of unnecessary white space around them—this happens when Designers choose to display the 16 x 16 pillows instead of the 20 x 20 pillows. I guess it was an attempt to show customers that the 16 x 16 pillow size is smaller in a visual way, but the pics look so bad that those pillows will see fewer sales. The pics are already very small on phone displays, why would you make them even smaller?

Still not able to change the insitus for any of my pillows. If I go to edit, none of the insitus even appear. Could it be that I have all my pillows set to the zipperless option? Do I need to change the pillow style or size to be able to see the insitus when I edit?

Yeah, I wonder why there's no comment on this issue from Admin.  More than one has left a comment/question as to why insitu options to select are not available/visible.

Also still not able to change any of my pillow insitus. Same deal, no insitus appear when I go to product merchandising to edit. Would love to be able to change them already.

Awaiting word on why these images cannot be used for product merchandising. I'll provide an update when I get one.

Looking forward to this. The new insitu images are really good.

I'm eager to update to the new images, as soon as that's an option.

Seeing this morning the option to switch over to the new insitu pics is available. So yay, and thank you! 🙂
