Flea Market FNG here...

I went to post a few things in the On-Line Flea Market. I have photos of this stuff but on the entry page I do not see an "attach" feature for uploading.

Is there one, or you do just paste a URL from Photobucket, Flickr, etc., into the body of the description?

Vielen Dank!

Hi!

The attach function comes along a little after you get into the process... (step 3) so perhaps you didn't get that far along? I don't see the ability to hyperlink img src to an image... although there's a place to put a URL for "more info" which you could have that link to your image?

Another thought is to try a different web browser, perhaps your current one is not correctly rendering the "choose file" & "upload photo" buttons?

I hope this is helpful.

PS: here's some more info from the step 3 page that might be useful... "Each attached image must be less than 500 kb in size and either a GIF or a Jpeg. For more information about attaching an image, see the FAQ."

Thanks tp.

To be honest, I did not go to "step 3". "Submit" generally means.... well, SUBMIT, and I didn't want to have to go through an imagined hassle trying to delete, or edit, a partial listing.

The "Submit" button might better be labeled "Next", or "Continue".

And sure enough, there was the upload feature on "Step 3".

Agreed! I was tentative on my own flea market postings at the same juncture.

Good luck on your sale! :thumb

tp,

Is it possible to "delete" an ad? I made an error and expecting to see a "preview" or "submit" button uploaded an image. And that, was that.

It didn't say SUBMIT, it said UPLOAD IMAGE http://www.bmwmoa.org/forum/images/smilies/banghead.gif

Go to the Flea Market and click on Manage Ads. There I found this link:

That should let you delete the ad.
