This seems to be the trend nowadays I find it mainly with the younger generation. Also not even a please or thank you.

I also find that people who advertise don't put pictures or at least one picture up of the article for sale after all if they want to sell something they could put that little effort in and put one in the advert instead of saying e mail for pictures.

Probably people who have joined the forum just to access the Ads.

The ones who (sometimes grumpily, often reluctantly) make a few posts, then don't participate in the forum.

Because they don't get involved in discussions they are less likely to feel part of the community.

They may also be people who look at hundreds of ads here and on eBay, Gumtree etc. looking for bargains they can make a profit on by reselling, who don't 'waste time' following up on things they don't want.

Swapping pic formats is not always straightforward. Not all have pics in the right format and size. The forum requires both format and pixel size to be as prescribed.

Likely emailing pics is the far easier/better proposition.
