i'm computer iliterate, and get my wife to take the pictures and email them to me.
Wow, an honest man, that's hard to find these days. So, if you have the pics already emailed to you, ask your wife to resize them to a smaller size that is good for web pages. If she could get the pics under about 200 KB each, you have room for about 4 at a time. Then, once your done typing the ad, there is a box 1 inch below the text box you are typing in, that says Attach File(s): Click on the Browse button ad navigate to where those files are stored. Typically in your "My Pictures" folder. You may need to be shown how to navigate to there once, but only once, as it is fairly easy. Once you click on the picture you want you'll go back to the regular page and then click the 'Attach(and add more)' button until you have the pictures you want uploaded. There is a limit of 768KB of attachments per text box post, that's why you'll only be able to do about 4 at a time, then just start a 'new reply' to your own post and post 4 more if you want.
Easy Peasy

You don't even need to go through that trouble. Just upload them as is to a service like picasa. It's free, and it will allow people to download the full sized version (to see all the detail) if they want.

Why do people e-mail you asking for pics of your game for sale. Then you spend the time to send them to them and they never respond back to you. It would be nice for a response like, got the pics. will let you know etc.
Also I also get people e-mail and I don't back to them right away so they send another e-mail saying really interesting in the game i just what to see the pics. So i stay up to 1 am to send them off and again nothing.
Do people just want to feel important and get aresponse to there e-mail.
p.s congo is still for trade or sale along with nascar
I could play Devil's Advocate and ask, "Why do sellers send me pics of their machines and then end up selling to someone else ?"
Point is, time and energy will be wasted on both sides of the counter whenever something is bought/sold. Ever walked out of a restaurant after being seated ? Ever walk out of a store without buying anything, even though a salesperson ( or proprietor ) had looked after you ? Sure you have. That's just the way it goes.
It'd be a lot cooler if you did........ MAACA-Colonel

I guess I inadvertantly wasted Dave Astill's time too. I just noticed yesterday that the detailed pics of his Funhouse he sent me back in early March got sent to my "Junk Mail" folder. I never even look in that folder! Why does this happen? I became interested in another Funhouse around this time, and I kind of forgot about Dave's.
Sorry Dave! Thanks for taking the time to send me the pics. Much appreciated! The game looked great, glad you found a seller.

Looking does not guarantee buying. However shopping without any intention to buy is a waste of other's time. I'm my business this happens quite frequently. I have on occasion been tempted to send people the tv listings.
Just post pics. Less headaches - nothing to hide. I don't try and evaluate human nature when I am selling a machine so I just post as much as I have and lay down the ground rules to buy it.
Why do people e-mail you asking for pics of your game for sale. Then you spend the time to send them to them and they never respond back to you.
Because they didn't like what they saw. Maybe you need to use a different tactic when taking pics. Ultra detail./resolution of good quality items and minor flaws and fuzzy, out-of-focus "player" games.
