We list 500-1000 unique items every week. We use the AW web based software to list. The time that is spent to upload 300-600 images everyday is killing me. I have attempted to set up the Sales Manager Pro but I dont want to sycronize and have the over 25000 images that we have currently hosted at AW have to "sych" onto my hard drive either. Both times that I have attempted to use the desktop version either the software or the sychronizing caused my computer to freeze up. Is it that this software is better designed for someone with re-occurring items then someone like us?
Is there a faster was to upload images for the web based?
Am I doing something wrong with the Pro? Is it just that there are so many images to sych?
Is there a good way to manage my images? We only upload images, never deleting them. They are only deleted when AW deletes them. Since 95% of our listings are unique, one time listings, it would be great to be able to set each listing to delete the images if the item sells.
I would love to get this thing to work for me. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi Worldhq1,
When uploading a large volume of images, Sales Manager Pro is the best way to go since it allows you to upload as many images as you want at one time. The downside is that it will take a while on first synchronization to get your images from online to synchronize offline. I would recommend synchronizing at night perhaps, or doing it at a time where you will be away from your computer, so that you don't have to sit and wait. There isn't any other option besides using Pro to upload, if you don't want to upload online anymore.
Regards,
Sonya
