You should upload all your images for the listings you're creating that day in advance. That should save some time as well so that you'll only need to select them once you are creating your items description.
Here are some tutorials and taped classes that should help:

You shouldn't need to change tabs when creating a set of listings once you've created profiles and uploaded your photos. You should be able to go from creating one listing to another staying just on the listing tab and basically entering a title, descrition, selecting pictures, and entering your price. Everything else should be filled in and ready to go.

You can do that here. You can host your photos somewhere else and copy and paste URL's into the photo hosting boxes here too if you want to do that. I think it would take longer than using our image hosting and selecting the photos but we have that feature.
We have a feature that lets you copy a listing or even to create a listing like the one you just created. In that case you'd just edit the fields that need to change such as title, price, and description.quote:At one point I just pulled up a listing I just did and copied and pasted the data from there.
Check out the tutorials and videos and play around a little more and I think you'll find it to be faster.
