Cost of photo and adding more info. after listing?

Options
Hi,

I'm quite new to e-bay and have listed several items for sale. However, I've noticed that several sellers have more than one photograph to sell their goods. The "help" section states that the fist photo is free. But I noticed somewhere that you can insert 12 photos for free when you're initially selecting the photo. I'm confused :(

Also, if I do decided to include more photos to help sell my goods, can I do this once the auction has started? Do I just go to the edit section and will it cost me additional money.

Thanks so much :)

    Photos are free in some categories but chargeable in others, however you can use a third party hosting site like photobucket and add the HTML in the HTML section of your listing.

    As long as you don't have any bids a simple revision of your auction is free, btu if photos are chargeable in your category then you will pay the extra fees.
