OT Selling on ebay

[Dave H (MI)]

I know a lot of regulars here sell stuff on ebay. Anyone know why I am having such fits loading pictures? I loaded up two auctions with a pic in each one but since then I can wait all day and it never uploads the pic....just keeps acting like it is working on it. Can't get anything to load on photobucket either. I have AOL dial up but, seriously, this has never been an issue. Slow but not impossible. Any idears?

what operating system do you have and have you cleaned the cookies as well as cleaned up space on hard drive or checked to see if you need to defragment

Did you check the resolution/size of the photos.
I usually use around 1 megapixal for ebay.
You can use nearly any photo software and resize.
I have been having issues with paypal today, they are the same company now. It might be on their end.

What is the file size of your pic your trying to upload? Over dialup, depending on your connection speed/quality,anything over 0.5M will take a while.

We use eBay Turbo Lister. It is Free and is much much faster and easier to list your items especially if you have dialup. You can list your items while you are offline if you want and submit them when you go online.

Make sure that the pictures are in JPEG mode. Then they will upload.

Dial up is slower than s*&t. J-Peg is the best format for pix, too, anything else is very slow, even with a faster conenction.

Alot of new cheap computers for christmas. Everyone tries them out or has time off from work. Nothing to do but surf the web. It's amateur night. Be carefull.

Look closer to ebay account ratings and scams. You may take a holiday break, but the scammers don't.

Yes what Andy M. said.There is an optional upgrade for loading pictures and it is free and works well.I beleive it is Turbo lister.
