why all the pm/text me for photos posts?
 
Am I missing something, is it more difficult to post pictures?

I'm not guilty of the "text me for pictures" posts, but for me to post pics on the computer used to require me to get my pictures off of my phone/camera onto the computer, then upload to photo bucket, then put the pictures in via html codes… so it was a hassle for me until I paid $ for the tapatalk app on my phone which uploads it directly.

So maybe many don't have the app.

A "hassle" perhaps but as a seller do you not want the greatest chance of success for your sale? Even if it takes 5 - 10 minutes out of your day?

Lots of people are just lazy, and to be honest, I generally bypass all adds which don't have pictures up front. We are buying/selling items which need to be seen to be appreciated, post some damn pictures! aha.

It takes all of 2 minutes to upload photots and make a post. I use photobucket on my phone. Very simple and free. It should be a requirement to have pics in the for sale section

Im the same way if there is no pictures I usually don't even bother looking

I don't understand either so easy to do straight from phone I have no intrest in anything with no pics.

And even for those who don't want to create an external account for storage, Canreef members have 4 MB of free storage. :) Not much, but I can fit about 40 med-res compressed JPG photos on it.
