Hi, I'm Michael Burton with michaelburtonfilms.org, located in Salt Lake City, Utah. We're here
talking about Internet essentials. Now, I'm going to show you how to add a photo to your
ad on Craigslist. Okay. To add an image to your ad on Craigslist is very simple. First
of all, let's bring up our Start menu, and we'll go to our Internet Explorer to bring
up Craigslist. Now, the address for Craigslist is www.craigslist.com. Now, the first page
that you see in Craigslist is the general like city, states, countries page where you've
got to choose where you're from. We're going to choose Utah because that's where we're
currently located near Salt Lake City, Utah. So let's choose Salt Lake City. And this brings
up your first...your first page. Now, for those of you who are not familiar with Craigslist,
Craigslist is a free classified posting place where you can post things you're selling.
There's personal ads. You can, you know, look for work, you can post job...you know, job
postings, things like that. It's basically a huge community of people around the world
where you can get good stuff for cheap if you're purchasing. You can also find good
jobs, people advertising work from home jobs, all sorts of things. So what we're going to
do is we're going to show you how to add an image to your ad so when you're going to place
an ad. So let's go up here to the upper-left hand side where it says "post to classifieds".
This is going to give you the option to post any type of ad that you want. We're going
to go ahead and put a for sale ad in because I actually do have an item for sale. This
one is going to go... Now, what you want to do is choose your category first, and we're
looking for the electronics. Let's see. Here it is, right here. So we'll click on electronics.
Our posting title will be a five-inch Nebtek On-Camera Monitor. I have a five-inch on-camera
monitor that I have for sale. Let's go ahead and put a price in for 200 dollars. Now, let's
put a posting description. This on-camera monitor is a... Okay. So we're going to repeat
five-inch Nebtek On-Camera Monitor. It mounts right to the top of your camera. Okay. Let's
just go ahead and leave that for right now, and then what you have to do is you have to
put in your e-mail address down here. And then you...once you get your e-mail address,
that's the way that people can contact you. Like I said, mine is info@michaelburtonfilms.org.
And then again, you're going to want to retype that. Info@michaelburtonfilms.org. Now, right
here below this, there's a button that says add or edit images. This is the button that
you're going to want. Now, when you click this, it's going to bring up four images here
-- Xs -- that says, "No image yet". That means you haven't, obviously, added an image.
So to add an image, you can either type in the address if you know it by hand of where
it's located on your computer, or you can click browse. Okay. So right here under my
other desktop, I have a folder called mini screen for camera. We've got an image here.
We're going to go ahead and grab that image, and click open. Now, when we click open, you'll
notice that it appeared as a green circle. That shows that I have an image selected and
ready to go. We're going to go ahead and just upload this one image. So what you do is you
come down to the bottom and you click continue. And if you give it a minute, it will upload
your photo. Okay. Now, that your image has been uploaded, you can see that it created
our ad for us. Here we go. The Five-inch Nebtek On-Camera Monitor for 200 dollars, and you
can see the image that we posted right here. That's exactly how you add an image to your
ad on Craigslist. It's very simple. Just go to click...click on add/edit images, add your
image, and then you're all set to go. And then once you get to this page, you scroll
down to the bottom. You can either edit your ad by adding another photo, which I do have
another photo, or you can click continue and that'll automatically create your ad for you.
