Who agrees with idea for new RULE on sales - ?

On another note I’m loving all the info on here, valuable for someone starting out again (just need more pictures ;-)

Just an observation; not criticism...

And adverts need buyers, not browsers. anyone genuinely interested will tend to ask questions and request more details.

Currently, I want to sell some Blacksmithing items. The description is clear enough and if people need pictures, they won't know what they are looking at anyway and are probably just wasting my time. the items weigh about 200kgs so would have to be collected anyway and can be viewed then, much better than photos.

You can look at different ways, more browsers, more new members, more customers for the forum sponsors...... pictures attract buyers no matter what the product. Yes I agree can also attract tyre kickers, that’s the downside of selling anything.

I can’t see what the harm is posting up some quick pictures to go with an advert, if you’re prepared to send them to potential buyers then no reason not to post on the advert.

I think the excuse for cannot upload pictures is a bit weak.

Neil i have tried off my phone following advice to load pics so many times i lost heart. I managed to change my avatar once many years ago. But every time i try pics it always stops whilst uploading and says "loading of pics failed" if it was that easy why are so many of us ffs failing. maybe off a conputer it works but i do not have one. It seems a bit hit and miss depending on the device bring used to upload the pics. Sorry i snapped at you but it is not that we dont want to put pics on posts, irs because we have tried and failed and most probably because of the nature of uploading them does not work with the certain devices we use, ie phones. Also my minimum pixel on my phone is 10 megapixel so might be to large a file to upload. I tried seeing if i could minimise that on the pic but my phone cant do that. I am lost what else to do. I certainly aint buying a computer just for uploading pics thats for sure. Chris

The software this runs on is over 15 years old and predates the iPhone. It’s had minor updates but a lot of the forums have moved on to be much more user friendly with modern technology.
