I can only guess that you did not follow the necessary procedures.

Depending on the posting category you may be invited to add a picture from your hard disk. (For details, go to www.craigslist.org/about/help/pic.) Otherwise, you can add graphics in HTML with the img tag, if your picture has been posted to the Web--although lately Craigslist has been blocking that tag in some cases.

Unless you have your own website, the best way to get your picture on the Web and into Craigslist may be by using the free Addsnaps hosting service. Just upload your photo to Addsnaps and paste the provided code snippet into your ad.
