Our inventory software publishes our inventory directly to our vendio account. Ever since the upgrade to the vendio interface, our inventory software can upload data but not images.
Upon inspecting the new interface, we have not been able to determine what file on the vendio server we need to send our picture/upload information to.
Our software sends pictures one at a time via the old uploader, by building the post and submitting it to the file that processes the upload image form.
The new system uses a bunch of javascript for making a fancy interactive interface. We have sifted through the files and as yet have not determined when the final information is sent and to what file.
It would be very helpful to us if you could provide the name of the file that finally processes the image data, and also what information/variables are sent to that file. With that information we can alter our inventory software to calculate and send that data and our image files.
Our software sends images one at a time. If you can provide a link to the old image uploader, or to a page with a simple upload form that will allow the upload of a single image, we would be most appreciative.
If we cannot publish our inventory to Vendio, we are going to have to create our own buffer for previewing and scheduling the launch of our items directly to ebay. We will also have to pay $500. If we do not do our own image hosting we will be limited in the number of images per auction as well (as ebay does not support as many images per auction as vendio does).
We really enjoy Vendio's services, and are hopeful that we can cooperate and re-establish our automated interface between our inventory software and our Vendio account.
If this does not work for you and you are on the XP platform, we recommend you check out the Vendio XPress Image Publisher as it allows you to upload all your images at once from a folder on your computer into your Vendio account. Let usk now if you have any questions.

Hi James,
I understand what your trying to do. The new uploading system is very different from before (faster and more reliable) so you will have to change how you post. I'll ask our engineering team to see if they can give you more details.

I have not received word from you guys.. I can see that there are actually three posts now involved in uploading a file. What I can't see is how to build my post so that it sends the image file.

If you cannot get back to me easily with an explanation of the new posting process (I notice that there are three individual posts, I'm not extremely well-versed on multi-part form encryption), it might be easier for both of us if you can supply me with a php function that will allow me to login to my vendio account and upload a picture.
I'm not looking forward to having to pay ebay $500, and then having to replicate in-house, so many of the services that we already enjoy from vendio.
