Hi Jeff,

The following has always worked for me but I've never done a pay-per-ad.

After filling in the Item Details screen, hit the continue button to reach the Photos screen, and use the Browse or Upload buttons to input the path to the JPEG image you want to upload. See attaced image.

Once you do figure out the picture process and you are ready to post the ad you will need to remove both your phone # and the outside email address otherwise your ad will not stay up long....it will be deleted. You may want to read the TOS.
