as for the steem auction site we haven't figured it all out but have found this https://steemit.com/steembay/@steembay/daily-report-2018-04-23
and trying to see how it all works.
But for an auction or a raffle on your feed you can do it as a post here is one of our raffles:

Choose your selling price number of entries and that will give you a cost per entry (most raffles seem to be 1-3 Steem Dollars) and post share and promote it! once filled choose the winner using Random.org it is a lot of fun
you set up the auction in a similar way with an end time to determine the winner
hope that helps some
@dixiesilverminer Thank you so much! This is extremely helpful. I think now I have a pretty clear idea on how to construct the posts and where I'd like to take this. I'm pretty excited to begin. :)
Once again, thank you! I am very grateful for all your help and feedback. -James
thanks for sharing your art! Can't wait to see how it works for you! Good Luck !
You're quite welcome :) I sure hope to be able to put something together very soon.
