1. This approach likely pentuples bandwidth, and that's optimistic.
2. If you've never posted to Craigslist, don't try to redesign it. Anyone who's posted with an image knows that no such "product zoom" would be possible because of how CL transforms uploaded images to a suitably small file size.
Craigslist is a paragon of usable design, and you don't want someone who's critical of it for aesthetic reasons to be touching your website.
I got started in this industry as a web designer and I'm considering a move back. There are so many clowns who don't know a thing about usability and think that too much whitespace plus an anorexic serif equals quality.
