Dear Moderator:
Maybe ive just been doing ebay too long-- but I can't seem to get an image from Vendio to show up in my auction. I want to place pictures of my items directly above the Item Description. Im sure Im using the right tags: i.e: <img src="http://imagehost.vendio.com/etc... But when I launch my auctions or just even preview them-- just a little box shows up with an x in it-- no image! Any advice would be appreciated-- including maybe the specific url address or exactly what I need to type in when linking the image. I have no problems adding my images in Sales Manager Pro-- just need help adding images in different places in my listings.
Thanks in advance,

It looks like you may be using the wrong URL. To obtain the code which contains your image URL(s), follow these steps:
1. Click the Image Hosting tab.
2. Check the box next to the image(s) that you wish to select.
3. On the bottom of the page, click the "Attach" button.
4. Choose "Other Auction Site (generate HTML)", select New Auction, and click "Continue"
5. On the next page, copy and paste the entire block of HTML (which includes your image URL) into the description box of the auction listing form.
If you wish to use only the image URL, it/they will be embedded in the HTML code generated by our system. If you do not have the "click to enlarge" feature enabled, the image url will look like this:
If you have the "click to enlarge" feature enabled, you will need to alter the ".mids" URL to create the correct image URL. To do this, just remove the /.mids portion of the URL. Here is an example:
The "after" URL can be used in any auction and can be altered to point to any image in your list simply by changing the image filename portion - just be sure that the filename *exactly* matches the filename on our site (case-sensitive.)
