My auctions started on tuesday and end sunday
1/2 THE TIME NO PICS i undersatnd that this is due to ebays constant changing there software,nonetheless i canr afford to give away my product,the listings fees are minor compared to what the auctions will end with no profit. I think its time to take another week off or more

First, find a better place to host your pictures. Even when Auctiva is working fairly well, pictures they host are at best slow.

Second, right now NOTHING at Auctiva is working and with AW going belly up the number of alternatives is going way down.

Friend who uses ebay's (old Blackthorne) software says it is so buggy it is a crap shoot.

Seems that the market is ready for someone with a vision to develop & properly price a reliable product.

there are plenty... register a name, get a web site, use it for your pix...
The site I use charges $99 per year for 100 megabytes. A bargain if you run a number of aucitons, and you can use it for whatever else you want (like a web site!!!)

I've been using AA for several years & changed over to SAB when it was offered. I've had very few problems w/SAB.

SAPro is a real nightmare especially if you use it on a network. We've been experiencing decreased functionality with every upgrade they do (about every 3 weeks). We actually had to downgrade this week because the new upgrade will corrupt your Database if used over a network.

Considering that this software is owned by EBAY, you would think that they would be on top of things. But, as usual, they are not and it is buggy as hell.

I also find it very slow. I'm running a 1.5 GHz processor with 512M of RAM and I find that it does not run at a decent speed.
