How to Use Flickr for eBay Auctions
- 1). Log into your Flickr account. If you don't have a Flickr account, you can create one using your Yahoo! ID, Facebook Connect or Google login.
- 2). Create a folder in your Flickr account for your eBay auction. Upload all of the pictures of your item to the new folder.
- 3). Use the Flickr Badge Generator to create a new badge using the pictures you uploaded to the new folder. Create either an HTML or Flash badge, selecting all of the pictures in the folder and copying the HTML code for embedding the badge into a website once it is finished.
- 4). Log into your eBay account and create a new listing for your item. Fill out all required information for the listing, adding as much detail about the item as you wish.
- 5). Paste the HTML code used to add your badge to a website into the description box for your auction. When the auction goes live, the badge appears in the listing to let visitors see pictures of the item, and it also contains a link to the folder so that they can view additional images.
