Will someone please help me! I have current auction # 1202585861 with 2 days left and I need to add two pictures. I am relatively new to eBay and have never added a picture to an existing auction.
My problem seems small. I need only the name of the picure URL. I tried www.auctionwatch.com/vase49.jpg, but this did not work. The picture I uploaded is vase49.jpg and my eBay User ID is mikemate.
The auction in question had three pictures. After a few failed attempts, I deleted the third picture and upladed a new picture with that filename. The result is that the third picture does not show in the auction unless you click on the "click to view larger image". Can I correct this.

Hi, Mikemate....Go to AW Control panel, click on image hosting and there should be a drop down menu to "add picture to current auction" or something like that. Find your picture and select it, make sure the add picture box is checked, the submit and it will bring up the URL. Control C the url and go to eBay and revise. Be careful where you put the url, by Control V.
Hope this helps a little...

I started out with nothing and still have most of it left.

Thank you psyllie and dropover,
I found the "Attach Image" window that dropover referred to, clicked and went on my way. All is well - the auction may be saved. I'm sure many seller's use this feature regularly, and now I've learned a litle more.

Place check mark in front of name of pic you need, then go down BOTTOM of you Pic Page and click on ATTACH image. On next screen, look for ATTACH TO...select EBAY or whatever, then click on EXISTING AUCTION...and continue on.

Hi rarriffle
Once you are in Auction Manager click on Image Hosting. Select the image/s you want to add then scroll all the way to the bottom of the page and click the Add Image button. Follow the confirmation prompt and you will get a box of HTML to cut and paste.
If you have any more questions, please post them to the AW Services Forum - I saw Lydia there not long ago answering posts.

Even easier, upload your picture to honesty.com, after it is uploaded you just pick the picture you want to add to your auction and they add it for you. Easy, no url's to type and you don't have to go through ebay to edit your auction because honesty.com does all that for you.
I always do this if I need to add pictures after the auction has begun.

Thank you all for your help. I actually did it a different way. I deleted 2 bad pictures on the auction and downloaded 2 new pics named the same as the ones I deleted. Looks much better now. I am saving this information though.
