Is it out of line for a newbie to suggest that the pictures be copied over, so after the particular listing (craigslist, ebay etc.) is over, they still show up for latecomers like me?

Makes the threads more useful, forever, to the board IMO.

I will do that if the vehicle is highly modified or unique... I just drag the little thumbnails off the web page and attach them to my post...

otherwise I just copy the text...
