Dottie,
After the green circles appear, you’re good to go. That means they’ve loaded. Just click the continue button and your pics will appear. Hope this helps.

These steps should be located on craigslist.org. It would save many of us lots of heartache and frustration! Thanks for taking the time to “spell things out.” You should be paid by craigslist.org for doing this. I’ve learned from experience that ads without pics will be past up for those that do.
THANK YOU!

Hi,

I read all the information regarding psting photos on craigslist.

I was able to resize the 2 photos and post them, the green circles did appear, however they didn’t show up on my ad.

Today I deleted the ad and I want to start over again.

Does anyone know why?? Can someone help me figure this out. The help section on Craigslist didn’t have any info onthis proble…

Thank you,

You're right, Brian, there doesn't appear to be an option to upload a photo in skilled trade services.

But there is a way around it. I checked on Photobucket, and when you are on the photo page, toward the left side of the page, there is a section of coding examples.

The coding under the heading "HTML Tag - Websites & Blogs" is the one you want.

Highlight and copy the coding. Then paste it in your Craig's List ad.

It will look similar to this:

When you preview your ad, you should see an image.

I suggest to resize your images before uploading to PhotoBucket, that way they will be the right size for your Craig's List ad.

Hope that helps! Thanks for your comment!

NOTE: You don't necessarily need an account at Photobucket. Other photo sharing web sites like Picasaweb and Flickr also include the html code to display your images on other web pages.

Yes uou’re right this is easy and I do this all the time on items for sale,but I’m refering to skilled trades on services offered it does not have that option. I asked someone who has an ad there with an image and they said to use photo bucket so I now have photo bucket album but I don’t know what to do next.
