I'll upload the original images to abpn...


done! i don't have a decent hosting site. Too bad ebay's picture
sizes haven't kept pace with the real world. I pay extra for super
size pictures, and they still aren't very good.


I use eBay hosting sometimes for the gallery picture but beyond that I just
manipulate the html by hand to bypass their silly extra picture fees and
stupid restraints on size.

eBay is quite limited when it comes to picture hosting. Even if I
resize my images in advance using a graphics program to the standard
eBay picture size (no greater than a 500 pixel width or height) they
still get downgraded somehow after uploading.

So what I usually do is use the img src tag to include mid-sized
images within the listing text and link those images to larger images.
Using the target="_new" tag the larger images open in a separate tab.

There is simply no reason to pay for their picture hosting - less service,
poorer pictures, less control.

Use a free picture hosting site and you will be in full control of your
images. Billy

What do you think the point of img and a tags are? So that buyers can
send you overgraded raw coins?
