Hi,
Sorry to bother again, My question is how can I add html link to a picture I have stored on my Custom Template. If this is not possible, how do I do that.

Hi Kelly,
It's best to upload the image to Image Hosting, then you can write an HTML link to insert it in your item description. If you just need the URL of the image itself, upload it to Image Hosting and let us know the name of it and we'll tell you what the URL is.

Wouldn't it be better if your system would give us the url to all our images automatically rather than asking you every time we want the url link?

Hello,
To obtain the code which contains your image URL(s), follow these steps:
1. Click the Image Hosting button.
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:
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:
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.)
