How do I attach screenshots at Flippa?

11 replies
Hi everyone. I'm gearing up to run my first Flippa website auction and I can't seem to find anywhere in the listing details how to attach screenshots to the revenue and traffic details. I'm sure it can be done with some code...but could someone give me an example of how to attach the screens?

Thanks in advance,
Jacob Martus

    Not done this yet, but you can obviously use the HTML tag for inserting images, if they're hosted on your site.

    HTML img tag

    Google analytics can be done via the Admin on Flippa.

    The is a link for managing attactment at the right hand of the auction page ( you have to list your site for sale first). On your auction page, you will find a text link by the name " Attachment Management". You can use the attactment management link to upload whatever you need to upload.

    Hi everyone,

    Did anyone manage to attach a Screenshot for Flippa Listing..?

    I did go to Manage Attachments and upload some photos but still "Screenshot not available" is displayed.

    Sorry for the trouble Really appreciate the help.

    I'm also selling my first site on Flippa today. I also paid for the screenshot and made a fancy table for my listing (which they didn't allow) which had all sorts of images and formatting. Seems that plain text only is the policy.

    Anyway, I paid for the thumbnail and can not figure out how to upload it. It says "Screenshot not available" in my listing and "Screenshot pending" on the new listings page search results.

    Does anyone know how I can include a thumbnail? I've raised a support ticket but by the time they get back to me I'm sure it'll be off the front page.

      The screenshot is auto-generated. It will show up after it's generated.

    It's done after the listing is live. Go to the live listing and click on Attachments. Someone above said you can use html to add images.

    You can't. Flippa doesn't allow images in the body text.

    Oh ok, so when you pay for a site thumbnail Flippa generates it itself? Does it take a long time? It's been a few hours already.

      Andrew, above, the Flippa guy said there was a glitch with the thumbnails that's been fixed. I think there is a link in the sidebar of your listing somewhere that says regenerate thumbnail. If you can find that, click it. If it doesn't show, ask Andrew up there a few posts or contact Flippa support.

    Had a look, can't find the regenerate thumbnail link. Thanks anyway. Maybe support will have something to say - hopefully before the auction ends.
