As we announced earlier GarageSale’s Free Image hosting won’t be available tomorrow (May 27th) for a few hours.
You won’t able to upload new images and your auction images won’t show during this period – but once the system has arrived at it new home everything will be fine again.

This years eBay Live! takes place in less than a month in Chicago. If you haven’t done so already, please mark this date in your calendar:

For the fourth year in a row we are taking part in this special event with our own booth (#1061 ). We are looking forward to demonstrate new versions of our existing products as well as two(!) completely new applications to you.

You are more than welcome to come by our booth just to say howdy. We always like to meet our customers and get to know how they use our software or where they see room for improvement.

See in you in Chicago!

We just released GarageSale 4.1, a free update for all GarageSale 4 users, sporting several improvements and bug fixes:

Ignore for eBay warnings
Have you grown tired of those pesky eBay warnings about your PayPal payment being held? GarageSale 4.1 will cure this: When eBay sends you a warning during auction verification, you can now choose to ignore similar warnings in the future.

FTP Changes
If you have chosen to upload your images to an FTP server and this server didn’t allow for multiple image upload connections, you might not have been able to successfully upload your auction images. Starting with version 4 GarageSale uses multiple FTP connections per default. Unfortunately some low-cost web space providers restrict their customers to a single FTP connection. GarageSale 4.1 takes care of this problem by adding an option to use only single connection.

Please see the version history section on the GarageSale homepage for more information about what’s new in GarageSale 4.1.

On Tuesday, May 27th, 2008 the data centre hosting the infrastructure for GarageSale’s Free Image Service is moving to a new physical location about 120 miles away from its current home. 

During the move GarageSale’s Free Image Service will not be available for a period of up to 8 hours. Please see below for the exact period of time of the move: 

If you selected GarageSale’s Free Image Service as image storage in GarageSale’s preferences your auction images will not be visible during the move. Please take these time into consideration when starting new auctions.

Also, you won’t be able to upload new auctions to eBay in this period, unless you select a different storage option for your auction images.
