A picture is worth a thousand words....part 1

Some people wonder what the difference is between items with pictures and those without. Here's the scoop (statistically speaking, and very rough):

*Items with pictures get ~5 times the number of views as those without pictures
*Items with pictures get ~2 times the number of messages from interested people

So, it's worth it to get your duff off the couch and learn how to use that digital camera. Maybe someday we'll write a cool code snippet to allow you to take a picture with your cell phone, send it to an address, and have it post automagically. But, until then, keep snapping those pictures.

If you're one of those rare breeds without a digital camera, you can find some very cheap, basic ones online. If you're one of those rare breeds that isn't comfortable finding some online, give us a shout and we'll find some for you....:)
