I have an idea of using the optional uploaded image and banner manager plugin.

Lets say I used the optional image upload feature and instead of displaying the image they uploaded in the listing on our site but I copied the location of the image they were assigned :

i.e. http://www.xxxxxxxx.com/directory/imagefiles/10608.jpg

And I used their image url in the banner manager and setup a banner advertising account with that url.

This way when they edited their listing with the modify option and changed their image "banner" it would automatically change in the rotation also.

I ran a couple tests and when I used the modify option the url didn't change it was still:

http://www.xxxxxxxx.com/directory/imagefiles/10608.jpg

even after a new banner was uploaded.

So do you think this would work? I was thinking of adding this as a bonus for Premium Listings.

So my big question is. Do the image file names ever change?

Ok, I tested this out and found that it does work. The assigned image number is the same as the clients account number. I think the only thing will be if the client changes from a .jpg to a .gif etc. I will need to update that. But I found that most people in the past don't change their banner that often.
