Sorry you're having problems.

As described here, you can add pictures to your post in the housing, for sale, and personals categories. If those instructions aren't working, it's a temporary glitch.

You also may be able to add graphics in HTML with the tag, if your picture has been posted to the Web--although lately Craigslist has been blocking that tag in some cases.


Hope this is useful. Please don't forget to click the Accept This Answer button if you do accept it. My aim is to provide reliable helpful answers, not just a lot of them. See https://www.helpowl.com/profile/Odin.

Craigslist has changed the way you add photos. You add them on the second page, not on the first page with your ad description. 

On the second page, you click on "choose file" and then pick the photo you want from one of your folders (my documents, etc.). Not too hard to do, but a little confusing after doing it the other way for awhile.
