摘要： A method of managing images between computers over a network. The method includes receiving a first product description and a first image location of the first product, the first image location referencing a first storage computer on the network; receiving a second product description and a second image location of the second product, the second image location referencing a second storage computer on the network; retrieving the first image from the first storage computer based on the first image location; producing a first thumbnail image from the first image; retrieving the second image from second first storage computer based on the second image location; producing a second thumbnail image from the second image; periodically reloading the first image and the second image in order to obtain any changes that were made to the first image and the second image; and updating the first thumbnail image and the second thumbnail image.

摘要： A method includes receiving, from a user, publication data to be published and location data identifying a storage location at which an image to be associated with the publication data is stored. The image to be included in the publication data is retrieved from the storage location identified by the location data. A reduced-size image is generated using the retrieved image and the reduced-size image is aggregated with further reduced-size images for presentation at a remote site.

摘要： A method and apparatus for information presentation and management in an online trading environment are provided. According to one aspect of the present invention, person-to-person commerce over the Internet is facilitated by providing prospective buyers the ability to quickly preview items for sale. Images are harvested from a plurality of sites based upon user-supplied information. The user-supplied information includes descriptions of items for sale and locations from which images that are to be associated with the items can be retrieved. Thumbnail images are created corresponding to the harvested images and are aggregated onto a web page for presentation at a remote site. According to another aspect of the present invention, a user may submit a query to preview items for sale. After receiving the query, thumbnail images corresponding to items that satisfy the user query are displayed, each of the thumbnail images previously having been created based upon a user-specified image.

摘要： A method includes receiving, from a user, publication data to be published and location data identifying a storage location at which an image to be associated with the publication data is stored. The image to be included in the publication data is retrieved from the storage location identified by the location data. A reduced-size image using the retrieved image is generated and the reduced-size image is aggregated with further reduced-size images for presentation at a remote site.

摘要： A method includes receiving, from a first user, first location data identifying a first storage location at which a first image is stored, The first image is retrieved from the first storage location identified by the first location. A first reduced-size image is generated using the first image. The first reduced-size image is aggregated with a second reduced-size image for presentation at a remote site, the second reduced-size image being generated using a second image retrieved from a second storage location identified by second location data received from a second user.
