I'm not sure why any sellers who can self host ever stopped putting
pictures within the description area of their listings.
It never made any sense to me

While adding some listings yesterday I noticed that my self-hosted

The reason I self-host is so I can post large images so potential
customers get a better idea of the condition of the item. (eBay
hosted pics are heavily compressed and near-useless.)
Anyway, it turns out eBay (in its usual if-it's-fixed-break-it mode)
arbitrarily went ahead and resized all the self-hosted pics to
resolve what was really a non-issue (broken links to a few self-hosted images).
The explanation is here (scroll down to eBay's response to complaints):

To summarize: eBay's answer to complaints was to suggest sellers
insert HTML pointing to their self-hosted images in the text of
their listings. In my case, that would mean editing over 250
listings in my eBay store. For others, it will mean editing hundreds
or even thousands of listings. Great solution.
Just thought some of the sellers who post on here should know, since
eBay never gave notice it was planning on doing this...
Thanks,
Dave
