Images and GIFS

Again, I fooled around for a while to try and come up with an alternative way to deal with the Image and GIF issues.

Try this:

Click on "Reply" to open Reply text box.
Left click the image/GIF from website, hold, and drag it over the CS tab at the top of screen
The reply box will reappear
Drag and drop the image/GIF into the reply box

That was how I included the above GIF.

I've tried about 10 different images/GIFS and so far it appears size doesn't matter!

I tried to do as you advised, but ebay told me it was too large, so I copied and pasted this pic, and ebay have automatically re-sized it??

And your cat image is 375 x 281??

What am I not getting here?

here is the original gif:

It worked for me. Did you drag it over the eBay CS tab at top and drop it?

Yes, I did....am using Chrome......you?

Ebay message: we cannot comply with your request...fix errors &try again, so I cut 'n' pasted and ebay automatically resized.

I can drag smaller images, though

I am using Chrome too. I haven't received any messages yet, it just drops in, every time!

I managed mine okay, but the photo's are still appearing in my Saved Photo's on eBay - I was hoping this wouldn't happen coz it is a pain going through and deleting them later, and leaving a HUGE gap in the thread posts once the photo's are no longer embedded.

What am I doing wrong ?

and yes I am a little OCD, I like things to be tidy and all my ducks in a row
