Help with A+ content
I'm really struggling with a couple of aspects of A+ content and would appreciate help!
1) Firstly, the standard modules for A+ content are quite restrictive so I'm going for large images (designed off Amazon) which include both images and text so I can lay everything out exactly as I want. My competitors have done something similar and it looks great, but my images all look a little bit blurry. I've tried small-ish images, massive images at max allowable pixels and both JPEG and PNG but it never looks really good quality. What am I doing wrong / what can I do to sort this?
2) My current A+ content is very basic (just side images and text), when I go to 100% images (which will contain text) it will look way better, but is there a risk that my products will rank worse for keywords, as previously they were included in the A+ content as words, whereas going forwards they will be part of an image? Is this something I need to worry about?
3) My sales are very very heavily weighted towards the Christmas period, hence trying to improve my listing now for maximum benefit. But I'm a little nervous that if updating the listing this near to Christmas causes my products to be re-indexed and anything goes wrong at Amazon's side it could cause me huge problems. I don't see how improving A+ content could cause anything to go wrong, but I've heard sellers say that all of a sudden their products suddenly weren't coming up for any search terms and I don't want to do anything this close to Christmas that could potentially instigate something like this. Am I being ridiculous, or should I wait until after Christmas just to be on the safe side?
Many thanks!

Its hard to advise on the images as a lot is going to depend on how you are saving them and in what px sizes.
With regards to SEO - if you have no text linked to the images, then yes you will see SEO affected. It could also impact anyone using a screen reader as well. I agree that sometimes the text and image blocks can look messy - but obviously amazons backend system can't take into account of the text if in an image
We've personally never seen any issue with ranking issues - but I don't think we've ever made changes close to Christmas.
