The last few times I've tried to quote someone else's post that has a photo the photo doesn't seem to come through in my post. Anyone know if there's a way to toggle this?

(ex. second post down on the page linked here http://forum.expressobeans.com/viewtopi ... tart=11355 )

Its because the person you're quoting is using the boards inbuilt image attachment system rather than an externally hosted image. The board system just quotes those as the attachment name. The only way around it would be to right click on their images and copy the link then paste that inbetween [IMG] tags.

when viewing the item's database listing, click Trade or Sell in the left column, check the I want to sell or trade the xxxxx edition, fill out the info, click Sold At Price Shown

Thanks for this great site! I have already invested an unhealthy amount of time here the last few days. Having been a part of a number of message boards in the past, I generally follow the "read more, post less" philosophy until I have a feel for the acceptable practices of the community. That said, dying to shed this "NOOB" avatar of shame (even if shedding the NOOB reality must be well earned), so to further that effort I made a small donation today and am making my first post to credential myself as a non-bot. Hook me up moderator gods!!! :notworthy:

how do you edit a "for sale" listing?

i'd like to offer "sale" prices for today only.

also..... how do you notify mods to bump thread? do you have to PM specific users?

i don't know mod names off the top of my head.

thanks.

All edits and bumps in for sale threads go through the mods. Send a pm to them by selecting global moderators in the group on the right side of a new pm

I am sure this has been brought up before and answered, but why doesn't the "condition" show up in the price history?

We fill out the condition and it doesn't show up anywhere but the "for sale or trade" tab.

Hello,
First, I want to apologize for having to use a translator to communicate with you but I do not yet speak good English.

I have problems to put pictures on a post, I have no link to load photos, can someone help me for this operation?
After I can not look at the collection or trade section of a person on EB, can you tell me how to do it?
Thank you for your help.

Is there a way to search a particular artist here and see all FS listings for that artist, regardless of print?
