eBay auction images :
An image URL is the internet address of your image, you cannot display images direct from your PC, they have to be uploaded to an image host! The Picture URL box of the eBay Sell Your Item form only accepts one image URL. So if you want to include more than one image you will need to place the image URLs in the Item Description box using some very basic HTML. Below explains how to do it, with some pictorial examples.
The code to use in your HTML for the eBay Item Description box:
(Make sure you are in HTML and not Standard view)
<br>
<img src=http://www.auctionpix.co.uk/users/xyz123.jpg><br>
<img src=http://www.auctionpix.co.uk/users/xyz123.jpg>
Notes:
- Obviously you need to use the correct image URL's given by your image host.
- Use a line break tag (<br>) before the first URL to prevent the text of the item description wrapping itself around the images,
- To use the first FREE eBay image, and/or a gallery image, you place your image URL into the Picture URL field.
- Need to edit/resize/crop your images, then I recommend Irfanview, a free download and used by zillions : Irfanview Info
- Need a tutorial (with explanatory images) on Irfanview to get you started ? : Irfanview Tutorial
eBay Forum signature images :
- At the top right hand side of any ebay forum page you will see Watches| Settings > Click Settings
- (I have included a <p><hr> to clearly seperate your signature from the text of your forum posts)
- Simply copy/paste the code below, and edit the image url part only to that of the actual image url
- <p><hr> <img src=http://www.imagehostingservice.com/foldername/imagefilename.jpg>
...... and don't forget 'the rules' on the use of signature images : |
