How do I use external image links in description

[ozqueenbee]

I have just listed an item with external http links to various images stored on ImageShack, no problems.

When I tried to list another item with links to images (also stored on ImageShack) eBay has blocked me with some message about not allowing http links and that the links must be https.

WHY?

If I can list one, why can't I list more?

To make it worse, I click the "More Info" link and get "It's not You, it's Us" message.

This is annoying me no end.

If image links must be secure (https), does anyone know of an image storage site that offers https?

Many thanks for your help in advance.

Sounds like you snuck one through.

It's been https for a while now.

I can't help further. I store my images on my computer - less chance of them not being available.

Try sharing the file with Dropbox. Note on link change the end 0 to 1

Thankyou so much for your reply... you have solved my problem!

I had tried DropBox but had no success probably because I didn't know about changing the zero to a one.

Thankyou again for taking the time to help... much appreciated!
