How hard is it to take pictures of the individual colors. I hate that photoshop recoloring that companies do. I know many have been doing it for ages, but damn, just take a picture of the thing you want me to spend money on. It’s just more ways they cut corners and offer a worse service.
The companies that have 10k products can afford to photograph them all. Maybe it’s not important to you personally, but I’m not sure why people are willing to accept a worse service for the same or more money. I want to see how a pattern falls on a garment. Plenty of large companies are able to provide that service just fine. Other companies will cut that corner because their customers don’t care and it won’t affect their bottom line. I understand that’s the way things happen, I just think it’s not in consumers best interest to be comfortable having main properties of the product they are purchasing digitally altered.
Eh, I could see it. Instead of taking pictures of each individual article of clothing for the website, have AI generate them.
“Columbia Sportswear Jacket in Blue”
“Columbia Sportswear Jacket in Red”
“Columbia Sportswear Jacket in Green”
“Columbia Sportswear Jacket in Orange”
Not much different from what retailers have been doing with Photoshop for years and years.

If you’re talking about 1 jacket in 4 colors, it’s not a big deal. Shit, I could do that.
But if you’re talking about 10,000 products in 12 colors? Yeah, much bigger deal.

They can afford to, but when it’s time to update your site or app for the fall line, do you have the time to do it?
I mean, I guess you could crowdsource it, or require the manufacturers to supply the images.
