advertising on ebay, picture hosting???

[ohreally?]

i'm hoping to sell a lot of things in one go on ebay, what is the cheapest way of putting several pictures on my ad....a reasonable image host?

www.photobucket.com is excellent. it's free, and all the cool kids have one

[ohreally?]

thanks for that. im really useless with computers, is that site easy to use? how many pictures can i have at one time? more to the point, how come its free???

[magicdice]

it's free because there's tons of advertising on it, it's veeeeeeery easy to use provided you have an email address to sign up with and i don't know anyone who's filled their picture capacity so let's call it infinite(!)

you can load up images from your PC or from a website, it's dead easy to handle

never tried bucket, looks good, will have a look.
Yahoo is totally awesome, if you're carefulish not to put on tons of big massive photos and have everyone looking at them at once. It also allows you to use FTP for free, which is VERY handy, trust me. Use filezilla, the best free ftp client. Upload all your pics, and then use the following line in your ebay html
<img src = "http://uk.geocities.com/OHREALLYWHATEVER/ebayselling/OHR EALLYPIC.jpg">
You can separate them with

(use ftp to create a file on your yahoo account called ebayselling). Once you try ftp you'll realise how much easier it is, just drag and drop.
(By the way, geocities is now used by yahoo, just incase the above confuses).
Good luck!
