Selecting An Image
To upload an image, you must first locate the image located on
your local hard drive. You are presented with a text box and two
buttons labeled "Browse" and "Upload". To locate an image, begin
by clicking the "Browse" button. You will see a dialog box pop up
which will allow you to browse your hard drive and locate the
image you wish to upload. Some browsers, mainly Netscape, do not
display "Files of Type" *.jpg or *.gif files. In this instance,
you will not see any image files to select from. To display all
available image files on your hard drive, you will need to change
the option in the "Files of Type" drop down menu to view "All
Files (*.*)". This will display all images available on your hard
drive for your to upload.
Once you have selected the image, you will see the path to the
image in the text area. An example is as follows:
Once you have selected your image, you will now be able to
upload the image by clicking the "Upload" button.
Image Restrictions
Images must meet certain conditions before you will be able to
upload them with your ad. These conditions are implemented for
both security and user convenience reasons. Before your image will
be accepted as a valid upload, it must fall within the following
parameters:
- Image File Size - Your image file size may not exceed
our maximum limit of 35000 bytes.
- Image Height & Width - Image height and width are
determined in pixels. You image height and width my not exceed
600 pixels in height and 600 in width.
- File Types - The only file types which may be
uploaded are *.gif and *.jpg files. This is the standard image
type for use on the Internet.
If you image does not meet these specifications, you must
modify the image before attempting to upload it to our system. You
may modify an image using image editing software such as
Photoshop. If you do not have an image editing software program,
it is recommended you download the trial version of an image
editing software package such as
Paint Shop Pro.
If you attempt to upload an image which does not meet the required
specifications, your image will be rejected by our system.
