How to Add a JPG to Craigslist
Craigslist is an online classifieds website which allows users to posts ads offering and seeking items for sale, lodging and even jobs. The primary advantage Craigslist offers over traditional paper classifieds is that your ad is published almost instantly. Another beneficial Craigslist feature is the ability to include up to four images, such as JPG files, with your ad, which help you accomplish your goal--such as selling a piece of merchandise--more quickly when used effectively.

Compose the title and body of your ad. Enter an eye-catching title, a price--if you're selling something--and your geographical location. Write a detailed ad body which describes what you hope to accomplish with your ad. Pictures serve to enhance an ad's copy, so your ad should stand alone before you add any visual aids.
