I love the thumbnails, but I can't get them to show up in my auctions. ??

I'm using the bulk listed from here, Auction Manager Pro. Is there a way to do thumnails in AMP, or can I add them after the auction begins right on the yahoo site?

You all have been so helpful and I've learned so much from this board.

Hope someone understands what I'm talking about and can help

TIA,
B.

Thumbnails have to be downloaded through Yahoo directly, unfortunately the AW Manager Pro hasn't been designed yet to handle this. Therefore, your pictures do not show up in the Yahoo Photo Gallery, nor on your page. I quit using the AWManager Pro because of this problem. AW said they were working on it and acted like it was not that important, but it is. Many folks only shop via pictures, and if you use AWManager Pro, your thumbnail pictures will not show up in the gallery.

The AWManager Pro is a WONDERFUL system in theory, but not applicable for Yahoo till they get the bugs worked out, and get the Thumbnail pictures to appear where they ought to be.

Of course I have had endless problems with error messages with the AWManager Pro, but I might have tried to work that out and fight through, but without the Thumbnails showing up in the correct area on Yahoo, I can't use the lister, it would greatly hurt my sales to not have my items pictured in the Yahoo Gallery.

BUT that is why your pictures don't show up - the AW system doesn't support it at the moment.

Paul, thank you so much for the invaluable information. I think I'll switch to listing singly, although I will miss bulk uploading immensely!
