FYI: Pictures hosted at Honesty have not been loading for me for about 3 days. Is this a known problem??

If your bids are down, it may be because bidders can't see the picture.

I do not use it, but was just wondering: why not use AW's?
If you do not care to use the templates, you can use the OLD way of uploading, by going to http://www.auctionwatch.com/ and clicking on Looking for our old services?...

Hi - we use Honesty to host our pictures and they load and show up fine (just checked when I read your post). And I have looked at them via the AOL browser and explorer. Try writing to customer support at honesty and they are very helpful. (nelsra on ebay)

Hi valeriet--
If memory serves, you use a Mac. I've been hoping you would post, because I use one too and I've been wanting to talk to you about things Macish, if you were willing & had time. It just seems like the world is geared toward Wind-bloze.

I've had no problem with my images showing up, and I use honesty. Of course, I haven't looked today...

My email address is [email protected]

Since you all are able to see the pictures, I tried to go to the honesty site and cannot. I wonder if my ISP (Earthlink) has it blocked for some reason. I'll send an email to support at honesty and at Earthlink and try to get to the bottom of this...

valeriet: I absolutely hate honesty.com! Hate it, hate it. I used to launch auctions from that site (or at least tried) for months. I'd work on the auction page description for ages just to have the whole thing disappear when I hit the submit button.

But the worst was when I went to my image hosting page at Honesty and my huge store of photos for future auctions were forever red-xed. I was told by their tech help that all my photos (and hundreds for other users') were "corrupted", gone, and they would not be able to get them back!

I was told I had to reload all of them again! Who has the time for all that?

Their many tech help boards are extremely active with the buhillions and buhillions of users complaining about all their Honesty problems. You get an immediate reply from a tech guy on those boards always saying they are working on the problem.

After all my photos were "corrupted", I posted that I wanted to cry! I got a post from a tech guy saying "Awwww. Patting and rubbing your back. Feel better?"

I was SO happy to find Auction Watch! Valerie leave Honesty while you can, you'll have nothing but trouble over there!!

I don't use Honesty. I sell on Amazon and they host all my photos. But I have been browsing eBay and I can't see half the items because they are all hosted by Honesty. It is frustrating.

I have tried other services, including AW -- I haven't found anything to be particularly Mac or Amazon friendly. So I stick to my own system for now.
