Question Classifieds question

Can we make pics a necessity? I mean, 99% of the time, people ask for pics. Nowadays, putting a pic on the net is not hard. There are several hosting sites, like tinypic.com. Could you make a sticky showing how to post a pic, and make it a rule?

Well, there's some people who just don't have digital cameras and didn't bother to plan ahead to borrow someone's or get film developed, but what's worse is when they do have digital photos and they didn't bother to host them somewhere (or get them small enough to attach to their post), just email them individually as people request them... I've even tried suggesting hosting/attaching in a few threads like that, and nobody paid any attention.

A regular camera works as well. Just scan them in, either at home or the library, Cant they put photos from a regular camera directly onto disk now?

Yep. Thus the phrase I included that says "or get film developed"

Its not fair to those who have no access to a digital camera or want to post something for sale at 3am on a whim, cuz thats when they decided to change directions w/their cars(hence making devloping film impractical). Pictures are definitely encouraged, as stated in PSJ's guidelines/suggestions on how to sell over the internet. I like pics tho....I always request them before I buy.
