Hi, been reading this board forever. Actually all the ones on AW. My favorite, must read site.

I need to know how many photos are allowed on an ebay auction. I looked around there but couldn't find it.

In other words, if I have 25 pics, should I combine them to make maybe 5 ? Thanks for your help.

You can post as many pics as you want - there is no limit... but keep in mind the more pics you have, the longer it takes the bidders to load your auction...

I stitch all mine together, so as to have only one URL. And, of course, compress. Try to go under 50kb total...

Hi Toke: I think I know what you mean by "stitching" your photos together. That is putting several pictures in one. If I'm correct, could you tell me how it's done? How can you tell that your picture in under 50kb? I appreciate any help you can give me.

Hi, The Fed...

Oh boy...I'm no expert. The program I have is ArcSoftPhotoStudio...came with my Mavica.
I click on edit...then click on stitch. In my program, you can continue that for an infinite number of stitches...then compress (in my case) 50%...for a reasonable KB size.

Toke: Thank you for the information. I have a Mavica and the ArcSoft Program on board my computer. It should be fairly easy to do now that I know where to look! I appreciate your help! Joe

eternallythankful, I have a D-360-L, but my DH has so much photoediting software that I can't rememeber what came with the camera! LOL. Did it come with PhotoPlus4? If so, just use it to pull up the two pics you want to combine, click on "edit", then "stitch" and play with them. You also want to be sure to turn off "auto fine tune" option.

There's no limit on the number of pictures allowed in an auction in the regular categories, but there is a 2-picture limit in Mature Audiences.

I personally use Adobe Photoshop

Open both pics
say for example they are both the same size

150 pixels high 75 pixels wide

I click on pic #1
Then in the tool bar click image.....then canvas size
Change the canvas to accomodate both pics
so making pic #1 150 pixels high by 150 pixels wide

Then click layers, add layer, then click on pick#2 and drag it onto the open spot next to pic #1

Then click flatten image

Then click save for web to compress it. Give it a new name and save it.

If that doesnt make any sense.....then nevermind its complicated if you don't use photshop. Its kinda hard for me to explain it.
