Hey Everyone,

When listing an item in my store, it seems I can easily upload a custom image
e.g. https://store.bricklink.com/smekel?p=smekel&itemID=255638990#/shop (screenshot
also attached to this post).

However, it seems to replace the catalog image, which is sub-optimal and I also
can't seem to upload more than one photo. It seems like there's not actually
a way to upload multiple photos based on: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1243288.
Is that correct?

Additionally, that post seems to indicate that if I were to put a URL to a non-bricklink
photo album, that my listing might get taken down. Can someone please point me
to the rules regarding this? I don't see any in https://www.bricklink.com/v3/terms_of_service.page

Thanx.

You can only submit one image per item at one time. If you want to replace the
main image, submit and wait for it to be approved. Then, submit any further images
(one at a time) with a note to the admins that you want it to be considered for
an additional image.

In this case, I think that they are wanting to show the condition of their item
rather than submitting more images to be used by everyone.

Yep, I totally missed that one.

You can upload custom images and link to them in the extended description field.
I can't remeber the exact way but google is your friend since it has been
asked before and I found the answer oncce that way.
