There are plenty out there and I was using auctiva a few years back but haven't used anything for ages. I noticed there ia a new one called auctonic, is anyone using it and is it any good? I am just getting back into things so are not really aware of bugs ec that are out there for different tools. Any advice would be appreciated. Hopefully I am allowed to be talking about this here...

We use Turbo Lister and it has never caused us a problem, in fact would not consider anything else. It is also free

I use Turbo Lister. These is nothing that I need that it cannot do. I'd never consider an online listing service liek Auctiva, that is too slow and too clunky!
And I use my own website for image hosting, rather that fiddling around with freebie hosts like Photobucket. This is probably one thing that many sellers really need to investigate further - having own hosting is handy in lots of ways, not just for images.
Once you've experienced file uploads with FTP (which is drag and drop) you'll never go back to awful and slow HTTP (web-based) uploads like you must use with Photobucket, Auctiva, etc.
I also use a program called Clic*Pic which makes clickable image galleries (eg: thumbnails with clic to enlarge), so I can have lots of images in my listings without having to make the listing huge (long and scrolling).
Clic*Pic makes all the galleries automatically, then uploads the thumbnails and main images to my server. I've now set it to make the main images 800x800 pixels, so the images are supersized liek the new eBay picture size. I just copy/paste the Clic*Pic HTML code and the gallery is done. I then use the cropped images that ClicPic creates as my normal eBay images.
Clic*Pic is not the same as the Auctiva scrolling gallery. I made a decision years ago to never use those in my listings, because they look dreadful and a good percentage of the time they never load anyway.

Auctiva.
Have used for ages and think it is great.
Never really had any issues.

Definitely Turbo Lister. I use in in conjunction with the robshelp.com template builder which is free to use with limited storage or you can pay US$8 a month for unlimited hosting of templates and photos using the sister site eaph.com

I use either turbo lister or (horror of horrors) the ebay sell your item form if I am only listing one or two.
Also use robshelp,com for my listing design - it IS brilliant - and host my pics on my own domain.
