FTP Struggle

[somoman]

Okay, I'm afraid I have no experience with ports and assignments of ports, but I'm not sure that  I need to.

I have succeeded at posting my photos individually (not in a folder) on my FIOS /Verizon FTP space. I use Cyberduck to push and pull my images. No problem. HOWEVER, I use these images when I post product for sale on Ebay. I am unable to create the HTML code that will allow me to access and show these images on Ebay.

I used to use AOL and their FTP space. I would upload my images with AOL's upload software. Say it was a keychain and the picture was named keychain.jpg.  When I would post on Ebay, I would identify the location of the image in the description using:

<img src=http://members.aol.com/my ftp user name/keychain.jpg>

I eventually shifted to RCN and that address was:

<imsrc=http://users.rcn.com/ my ftp user name/keychain.jpg>

I either cant figure out the proper html code because I dont know the proper address, OR the opportunity to displayt the image from my ftp is being blocked.

Can anyone suggest a solution

Thanks in advance, 

Stephen

OK ...   I just ran a test.  Enabled my FTP site and uploaded a file called XYZ.JPG to it.

The FTP site was:  ftpmysite.verizon.net

My userid was the same userid (without the @verizon.net) that I use to regularly login to my account

One this was done, I went to the URL

http://mysite.verizon.net/myusername/XYZ.JPG   (where myusername is my user login without the @verizon.net)

Worked just fine.  With this information then, an IMG reference of:

<img src="http://mysite.verizon.net/myusername/XYZ.JPG">

would work. 

Appears you need to pay attention to case.  So, if you have capital letters in the file name, they will need to be in your URL reference.

Hope that helps.
