Help, I have two items where the gallery pics aren't showing up. They are relists, and have been showing up until now.
Items

1793212516

1793213376

Thank you.

Hello,

eBay apparently had trouble grabbing the image from your account to add it back to the gallery.

http://cgi3.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?DisplayGalleryImagePage

The above URL is where you can correct the image selected for the gallery. You will need your images URL as well.

To obtain the code which contains your image URL(s), follow these steps:

1. Click the Image Hosting tab.
2. Check the box next to the image(s) that you wish to select.
3. On the bottom of the page, click the "Attach" button.
4. Choose "Other Auction Site (generate HTML)", select New Auction, and click "Continue"
5. On the next page, copy and paste the entire block of HTML (which includes your image URL) into the description box of the auction listing form.

If you wish to use only the image URL, it/they will be embedded in the HTML code generated by our system. If you do not have the "click to enlarge" feature enabled, the image url will look like this:

http://imagehost.auctionwatch.com/bin/imageserver.x/00000000/yourAWusername/yourimagefilename.jpg

If you have the "click to enlarge" feature enabled, you will need to alter the ".mids" URL to create the correct image URL. To do this, just remove the /.mids portion of the URL. Here is an example:

Before:

http://imagehost.auctionwatch.com/bin/imageserver.x/00000000/yourAWusername/.mids/yourimagefilename.jpg

After:

http://imagehost.auctionwatch.com/bin/imageserver.x/00000000/yourAWusername/yourimagefilename.jpg

The "after" URL can be used in any auction and can be altered to point to any image in your list simply by changing the image filename portion - just be sure that the filename *exactly* matches the filename on our site (case-sensitive.)

I went through all your instructions..ebay says it sees it, and it will show it..but now I see some of the new items I just listes, as well as the older two have no gallery pictures. I know it usually takes a few minutes for new ones to show up, but I've never had this problem before.

Ebay says it's the problem of the place where I host my pictures (that would be AW!)...but yet, they show up IN the auction. This is just wonderful just before Christmas!!
