    Ebay selling question...

    just wondering about this picture thing...I have a few pictures of the item I'm selling but I only get one free. but it does say I can link else where...so does that mean I can at a tag, much like the [img] tags here so that my pictures appear with the description?
    does ebay have a size limit? or dimension limit? can't find one anywhere
    never sold anything on there before so just wondering what its all about before I royally mess up!

    you can use a hyperlink, so people click that page for a product description. Its considered more polite as people don't waste bandwidth enless they want it.

    ah, right o...see what you mean, but if the picture itself is small there's nothing to stop me including it as I intend?

    You can host images on your own server (or free image hosting service) and just use

    <img src="http://www.server.com/image.jpg">

    in your description.


    Just dont use a full MP image, resize it down to something smaller, 640x480 is what I use.

    you can put as many pictures of what ever size you like in your add with the tag as atomic says as you can use basic html or as animus says just link to the pics although its better to have to pic immediately visable to the prospective buyers

    tbh i do all my ebay adds in frontpage before hand for much easyness

    as its your first sale make sure u include postage costs and an acurate description and payment methods accepted - include if u dont take paypal as ppl always ask that
