    Hello I have been using Craigslist for quit a while now. You need to be prepared there is a lot of scam out there and some people post the same thing over and over again, even the same day. It is against the rules and conditions but spammers unfortunately get away with too much.
    Now to the image problem. The image has to be a certain size. What you need to do is sign up with a free image hosting site like photobucket.com and upload your image and link to it in your post.
    It will look something like this: <a href="http://www.thewrightcorner.com" rel="nofollow"><target="_blank"><img src="http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb111/katwright_bucket/servicesforad.jpg" border="0"></a>
    That is all your post will say. Make sure the image is a jpg.
    Good luck!

    I did a test recently, with just 2 niche posts. Ended up with 4 sales. I had the linking problem to, so all I said is "e-mail for more info", then set up an auto responder with "my buddy set up an online store, yadayadayada, it's easier, yadayadayada"
    No problems or post deletions :)

    I'm 99% sure gmail has one that's pretty easy to set up. If not, most popular e-mail clients have the option.
    Really, if all else fails, just manually reply. Unless you're talking hardcore craigslist spam, where there'd be too many to reply to.
