Abstract
Implementations of this disclosure provide systems and methods for uploading, storing, and retrieving images of vehicles involved in accidents. These pictures can include one or more pictures of the damage to a vehicle due to an accident and pictures of the vehicle after the vehicle has been repaired. By providing before-and-after pictures of a vehicle involved in an accident, the extent of any previous damage to the vehicle may be more accurately documented. Thus, a seller of a vehicle that has been involved in a prior accident may have more evidence of the extent of any damage to the car to counter a potential buyer'"'"'s concern and, therefore, help retain the value of the vehicle.
