You can also add a new listing with image URLs in the hash. The client will upload them and save the image hashes to the contract.

Good job! You have a new follower.
An API token is a key that verifies the user is human with a time stamp. It has gps coordinates, fingerprint, and data that ties you "the user" to a machine, "your computer."
Actually, in this case, you don't need an API token. You need an OpenBazaar server running on the latest version, configured with a username/password that the API client can use to connect.
Thanks to @madmax828 for the information that I rebuddled with on this post. @inettia Thank you for the heads up as some people do not know these things.
Great work. I'll be back on OpenBazaar soon selling seeds. Added to auto-voter. (the botnet is now delegated and trailing me.) :)
