Visit Craigslist and select the appropriate section for your ad. In the top right corner of your browser, click 'post.'
Enter the relevant information into the fields for post title, description, etc. Click Add/Edit Images---if this option is not available, follow the alternative method in Section 2.
Click the 'Choose File...' button and locate the image on your hard drive. Craigslist allows you to directly upload four images with one post. The website will automatically decrease the size of larger images to a maximum of 300 by 300 pixels, so it is unnecessary to upload especially large images. If you want to preserve the resolution of an image without uploading large images, use the PNG file format (available as a savable format in most image editing software applications). The Craigslist interface will always reduce the size, however, so use the alternative instructions in Section 2 if your image needs to be larger.
Click 'Continue' to see a preview of your uploaded image. If the image still looks unsuitable, click 'Edit' to try a different image or follow the alternative method in Section 2.
Off-Site Images
Visit a free image-hosting website (such as Imgur, Photobucket or Tinypic). Follow the website's instructions to upload your high-quality photo. Copy the URL listed in the Direct Link field.
Visit Craigslist in a separate browser tab or window. Select the appropriate section for your ad. In the top-right corner of your browser, click 'post.'
Enter the relevant information into the fields for post title, description, etc.
Skip a line beneath the end of your description. Enter the HTML code for images into the field and paste your image URL into the source. If you do not know the HTML image code offhand, enter the following code into the description field and paste your image URL into the indicated field (between the quotation marks):
Click 'Continue' to see a preview of your post. If the image is too large or small, return to the image hosting website and use the available resizing tools to reduce the image size. Sizes around 500 by 500 pixels should be suitable for presenting a high-quality image without overwhelming your potential client or customer.

How Do I Create a Hyperlink to a Zipped File?In Feburary 2016 19,
In Feburary 2016 19,
Upload the zipped file to your web server, into whatever directory or folder you'd like it to be. You can upload the file using your website hosting control panel or any basic FTP client software.
Save a copy of your web page to your hard drive--save just the page on which you want to create the link. You can save the file using your web browser, the web hosting control panel, or by downloading it with your FTP software.
Open your web page HTML file with a basic text editor such as Windows Notepad, NoteTab or Notepad++.
Select the location in your web page that you'd like to create the hyperlink. Remember that you are viewing the raw HTML code when it's open in a text editor, so you'll need to be sure you place your new hyperlink anywhere after the opening body tag (
), but before the closing body tag (
).
Craft your hyperlink using the full HTML path to your zipped file, like this:Zipped' rel='nofollow' target='_blank'>http://www.yourwebsite.com/folder/zipped.zip">Zipped File'yourwebsite.com' will of course by your own website domain name and extension.
'folder' will be the folder name into which you placed the zip file.
'zipped.zip' will be the actual name of the zipped file for which you are creating the hyperlink.
The words 'Zipped File' will be the words that show as linked on your web page, and they can be whatever you'd like. 'Click here to download this zipped file' for example, would be a nice descriptive phrase that tells people exactly what to do.
Save the changes to your web page file, then reload it onto your web server to make the changes live on your site.
