So....
I have added code to the site that will recognize eBay auction links in forum posts (new posts moving forward), then go out and grab the primary image for that auction, save a copy locally, and attach it to the forum post.
All automatic, just works from (pretty much any) eBay auction link that you include in your post.
It is still a wee bit buggy so just let me know if you see any funny stuff.
I now need to grab more images (a lot of times the first image is not the best to save away) if I can figure out a good way to do that. So please still attach images to your forum posts if you think of it.
In the meantime, this should help us moving forward. :)
