This works great for me. Thought i'd pass it on. I have it in all my auctions.

Creating Your Own Gallery on eBay
Did you know that you could have your own personal Gallery of items
on eBay? What a great way to showcase the items that you have
listed in the eBay Gallery. To create your own Gallery, simply follow
these steps:
Step 1: Insert a unique phrase or word in the item description of each
of your items. We suggest using your email address.
Step 2: Find the link to your Gallery items (this will only need to be
done once):
a) Go to the gallery search page.
b) Insert your unique phrase or word (from step 1) into the search field.
c) Click on the 'Search titles and descriptions' box and click on
'Search'.
d) The link to your Gallery items can be found in the Address window,
which is also known as the Location or URL window. Copy this link.
Step 3: Insert a link to your Gallery items into your item description
using HTML tags:
<A href="Paste the link from Step 2d here"><B>Click Here to See Our
Items We Have for Sale in the eBay Gallery</B></a>
Following these three steps will create your own personal eBay
Gallery. Remember, a picture is worth a thousand words. This is just
another way to show off your items to your bidders.

If you use one of the free gallery services you are missing an important factor. By using ebay's gallery you are getting a thumbprint photo on the auction search page. If it wasn't for that, I'd be using a free gallery too. But, I know when I search ebay, sellers with thumbprints on the search page get my attention first. Text titles can't compare as far as giving a quick glimpse of an item without having to actually click on the auction page.
