Ebays, Pictures no longer free?

Last time i sold something, only a couple of weeks back you could have upto 12? pics as free...has this changed now?

It varies by category, I know clothes & accessories you can have 12, antiques for instance you have 1 free. I always use http://jpegbay.com/

Can't you use Photoshop (others are available) to make a montage of perhaps 4 pix in one.

If you are using external hosts, be aware that these may not show up on anyone using smartphones to view the listing.

It is a bit irritating (and fairly random) as to which items have 12 free photos and gallery upgrades, etc and which do not.

Never had that problem with Photobucket or my own hosting. I check my listings frequently on an iphone and android phone never seen that problem.

Ive never used ebays photo hosting always used external sites like photobucket. You can the have unlimited photos for free and dont have to worry about ebays constang changes in policy

I sell in categories where I only get one picture free, so I always host via photobucket and I am not aware that I have had any problems with buyers unable to view the pics. However, it is worth knowing and I'll find someone to check for me just in case.

I've never heard of them before but they seem really rather good

I'd tried a couple of different ones & found this one the quickest & easiest to use.
I find some peoples pics on ebay take ages to load & I get bored so don't bother unless it's something particularly good.
