Listpic is a cool mashup that lets you browse classified listings on Craigslist by just looking at the photos. The service, which a reader named Ryan told us about, works for the For Sale, Housing and Personals sections of the classifieds site. There's a slider near the top that adjusts the size of the thumbnails on the page.

Of all of the major "toys" in my life, I've bought most of them on Craigslist.org. My bike, a few of my guitars, my piano -- all Craigslist scores. When I'm looking for something in particular, I'll go to Craigslist and dig through the listings a few times a day. Listpic takes some of the pain out of the process, and it's a useful tool if you're looking for a specific type or color of car, bike, couch, apartment or whatever. As far as I can tell, Listpic only displays listings that have been posted with photographs. (Obviously).

Actually, the thing this is really going to blow apart is the personals section. People looking for dates always look at the photo first (right?) so Listpic will give you single types a way to sort through those potential suitors without having to read about the size of their Doctor Who fan fic collections.
