I'm looking to hire someone to add picture URL's and item descriptions to 4,300 lines of auction titles on CSV so I can use File Exchange to
bulk upload all the items to Ebay at one time
This is for Mature Audience items.

It sounds like you have a rather large project, and before you begin, a number of questions come to mind. Are you handy with spreadsheets? Do you know how to effectively use the tools in a spreadsheet? Those who are facile with spreadsheets can recommend the best way to organize your data and use macros to speed data entry and data organization.
Are your pictures coming from the manufacturer in a spreadsheet format, or are you pulling pictures from your own server? Are those pictures logically numbered or labeled to make automation possible so a program can enter that info?
Are your descriptions coming from the manufacturer, or are you creating them on the fly? They'll need to have all linebreaks removed, and File Exchange has a tool here to compress descriptions:

These are questions that could be addressed on this forum in a way that may help others who want to create spreadsheets for File Exchange.
Members are here to offer advice on how to best accomplish the above tasks. While it is unlikely you will find someone here willing to manually enter 4K lines of data, there are service sites like freelancer.com where you can hire talent or labor from around the world.

This is key to not having to enter manually. Most suppliers will number/name the images by a manufacturer's code or part number.
Any supplier should have a file to do this. That file would also contain titles, run time, description, etc.
