Adding (up to five) Photos to Your Listing

1. Uploading Photos: If you have digital images, edit them if needed, save as jpeg files and store in a folder on your computer (remember what you called them and where you put them!) Pictures will be automatically re-sized once uploaded but should be at least 220 pixels in height to minimise loss of quality. Pictures in landscape format (wider than they are tall) work best. Log on to your member area and click the link, Manage Your Photos (near the top of the page). Follow the instructions to find and upload one photo at a time from your computer. You will see the photos appear in the boxes on the page when uploaded. When finished, click the link back to your member area.

2. Sending Images by Email: If you can't upload your photos as described above, send us a message with your jpeg files attached. Include 'Photos for HE (your User ID)' in the subject line so that we add your photos to the correct listing. Your photos will be edited if needed and, again, to minimise loss of quality, ensure they are at least 220 pixels in height.

3. Sending Photos by Mail: No digital images? Send us copies of your photos (one or two only please) to the address below. Write your name and User ID on the backs of the photos. We will scan and add your photos to your listing when received.
