How to Post Unlimited High-Quality Auction Photos FREEThis guide is a regemendation for a process- embedding externally hosted photos into your auction description- that can be done alone, with several free 3rd party sites, or with paid 3rd party sites, along with some of the pros and cons of each options. I use this process to post multiple high-quality photos of coins I sell, but whatever you sell and whatever option you choose, the potential price (free or much cheaper), the number of photos (Unlimited), the quality of photos (as detailed and as large as you want), and the ease of use (pretty darn easy), make this a better option for sellers at almost every level. ~**Just a quick NOTE: if you VIEW, please VOTE! :) **~In literally 3 SECONDS of your time you will make the entire process of creating this guide worth it if you would be kind enough this guide as Helpful below if you believe it could be helpful to you OR to another okay user. Many Thanks!A Little BackgroundIf you're like me as a buyer, you are always wary of and frustrated with auctions that include only post a single photo, especially one that cannot be enlarged enough for your needs. If you're like me as a SELLER, you may be pulling your hair out over the expenses that result from okay's charges for additional okay hosted photos; although the charge is only about 15 cents each, with a profit margin of only a few dollars (or cents!) per item those charges can add up! At the same time, depending on the collectible you sell, the ability to provide LARGE, high-quality photos can translate to additional cash in sales- any collector purchasing a coin will want to see both sides in detail, same with card (sports, post, or otherwise!), a book buyer may want to see multiple pages, and for larger items like glassware and other collectibles many more angles in different lighting are necessary. It took me several months of selling to figure this out, and it appears like many new sellers still havent started using it yet, so heres a guide to get your started and to look at your options.The Answer for both the buyer and you the seller? EXTERNAL PHOTO HOSTINGWhy?1. Its FREE, or with premium editions, CHEAP. Many providers offer external photo-hosting for FREE (although this can be acgepanied by ads or more limited functionality), and, a product of the ever decreasing cost of online storage and gepetition, even the PAID option can end up costing you just one or two dollars per month, the tiniest fraction of a cent per photo and give you lots of additional features. 2. PHOTOS ARE AS BIG AS YOU WANT. Even the hosting sites here that have size limits have the limit set at the size of about the average laptop screen!3. AS MANY PHOTOS AS YOU WANT. With one cut and paste, you can add 1 or 50 (or 500? Havent tried it!) photos to your listing.4. Photos will appear as part of your description. 5. SIMPLE. Simply upload your photos to the sites, get the html code for the photos you want (many sites automatically generate this for you) and just paste it into your okay description page in the html view. YOU DO NOT NEED TO KNOW HOW TO PROGRAM/CODE/WRITE HTML TO USE THIS FEATURE- you just need to know how to copy and paste! To insert your direct link for your first "free" photo (the one that appears to searchers in the list) you will just use the regular url that begins with http://; for the embedded image you will need something larger that looks like this: "
