This one's a 1st for me. I tried to correct my gallery image in a couple of auctions. I used the following URL http://imagehost.auctionwatch.com/bin/viewimage.x/00000000/karalun/pantypink7.jpg.The image didn't take and the first email I got back from ebay said "Your image is in a format we cannot process:
http://imagehost.auctionwatch.com/bin/viewimage.x/00000000/karalun/rugshuttle.jpg
Convert the image into a jpeg and repost to your web site.
I tried again later and got the following message from ebay.
"The problem is:
The host in your url could not be found.
http://imagehost.auctionwatch.http://imagehost.auctionwatch.com/bin/viewimage.x/00000000/karalun/pantypink7.jpg
Check your image URL to make sure that it is correct.
Any ideas what's going on? I need to fix the gallery image and have never had this problem before.

You have duplicated part of the URL
http://imagehost.auctionwatch.http://imagehost.auctionwatch.com/
You can't have two http's the basic format is incorrect. I believe when you cut and pasted you left some of the original URL which is how you ended up with two prefixes.

The URL I cut and pasted from AuctionWatch is this
http://imagehost.auctionwatch.com/bin/viewimage.x/00000000/karalun/pantypinkthumb.JPG. It should be OK.
The duplication shows in what I copied from Ebay's email response - I tried again and got this email "Your image is in a format we cannot process:
http://imagehost.auctionwatch.com/bin/viewimage.x/00000000/karalun/pantypinkthumb.JPG
Convert the image into a jpeg and repost to your web site." I've had 2 different email responses from EBAY when I try to fix it. One telling me the format is wrong and the other telling me they don't recognize the URL. Something must be wrong either at EBAY or AW.
