I took pictures of it with my "flip Phone" camera. I need to know how to transfer the phone pictures to the ad so that I can sell it....help would be greatly appreciated.

I do this all the time. Download the pics to a file on your computer. Maybe you need to e-mail them to yourself. Then, when you write the ad, when it calls for pics link it to your file.

If you are trying to do it all on your phone, I dunno. I have found that tweeter phones and "real" computers don't provide the same quality of internetting.

In my arwa, when posting an ad, you will see a paperclip....when you click on that it opens up a place to attach pictures. I find it better to transfer pics to computer then to the ad. That is about as technical as I get.....lol...

Do yourself a favor…go to Facebook Marketplace and forget about Craigslist. 7-8 years ago, wife and I started to get rid of “stuff” as we were planning to downsize. First couple of items, I advertised on both. Got WAY MORE hits on MP so I just gave up on CL. Sold lots of stuff on MP including a boat and a car

With Craigslist you get an email response and then you can trade phone numbers and actually HOLD A CONVERSATION.

With Farcebook marketplace nobody will call you even if you request it. They all want to send tweets back and forth. Those that DO reply are sellers that offer a ridiculously low price.

Neither service is worth a crap in our area, and newspapers are gone. Selling personal items has become a real chore in my area.

The worst thing about CRAIGSLIST is the Nigerian scammers that INSTANTLY reply to your ad with some b.s. like, "yes to yes! Pleases to immediatelys offer...I will give you $100 more than price you aks...please to please send info for bank transfer..."

Flea markets used to be crooks.
Now we have instant crooks on the web.
When you agree to all the terms of a.......app......Read ALL of the thousands of legal rights you gave that company...... Including the looking very deeply into any sites you visited. And even the ones you bought something from. It is all shared for a fraction of a penny in value.............Security is B S.
