Awesome thanks for the update :D

One suggestion would be to have it say img next to the listings with pictures, kinda like craigslist.

Perhaps you're already doing this, but what do you think about automatically stripping out the EXIF data from all images?  Wouldn't want users accidentally posting their GPS coordinates, time, and date, or the serial number of their camera phone.

It wouldn't be too hard to do this automatically on the server when the image is uploaded.

I've been warning people about this for a reason - their is a wealth of info in most photos. More than just EXIF.

Peace,

I avoid photos just for that reason, I don't trust EXIF, even if I erase. Also please never allow GIFs. You can execute javascript with them...as many of you probably already know.

Ok I am glad that I can post a pic with my listings. But how the hell does one get their listing on the front page of SR?

I believe it is automated. The pics just appear like magic. I love it.
