The most likely reason why Craigslist is asking you to provide 'maps' is because they want to be able to verify your location. This is because Craigslist is a local marketplace, and it's important for buyers and sellers to be able to see each other's locations in order to make informed decisions about whether or not to meet up.

There are two ways to get past this requirement:

You can provide Craigslist with your location by entering your address, city, and state.

You can use a virtual private network (VPN) to mask your location. A VPN will route your internet traffic through a server in another location, making it appear as though you are accessing Craigslist from that location.

If you choose to use a VPN, be sure to choose one from a reputable provider. There are many free VPNs available, but they can often be unreliable and may not be able to protect your privacy.

Once you have provided Craigslist with your location, you should be able to post a photo without any problems.

Here are some additional tips for posting a photo on Craigslist:

Make sure your photo is at least 600x400 pixels.

Use a high-quality image that is well-lit and in focus.

Crop your photo to remove any unnecessary background.

Do not use any filters or effects on your photo.

Save your photo as a JPEG file.

By following these tips, you can ensure that your photo is clear, attractive, and will attract potential buyers or sellers.
