Equipment Images

This directory contains equipment page directories with product images.

Adding Product Images

For new equipment pages, product images can be downloaded from Amazon using the ASIN provided in each equipment page’s frontmatter.

Amazon Image URL Format

Amazon product images can be accessed using the following URL format:

https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/P/{ASIN}.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

Replace {ASIN} with the Amazon Standard Identification Number from the equipment page.

Note: This URL format does not work for all ASINs. Newer products may require downloading images directly from the Amazon product page.

Image Guidelines

  1. Download the product image from Amazon using the ASIN
  2. Save the image in the equipment’s directory with a descriptive filename
  3. Ensure the image is optimized for web (typically under 200KB)
  4. The image will be processed by Gatsby’s image sharp plugin automatically
