Don't. Not all of them, anyway. This is a great group, but no one is interested in wading through dozens of pictures of hundreds or thousands of stamps that will very likely be very common and not very interesting, from a philatelic perspective.
Instead, post 3-4 pictures, each with 5-20 stamps you find interesting, and we merry band of collectors will happily give you some feedback.
Here's the page that describes how to post pictures: https://www.stampcommunity.org/tuto...g-images.asp Try to upload scans, not photos. But if you must use a camera (phone or otherwise), please make sure they're in focus and that the lighting is good.

To be honest I want to sell the whole collection...but it needs like 150 photos (at least or more )to show all the stamps...


No buyer of this type of material needs hundreds of photos. Just a photo of the antique trunk that you found them in will do just fine. You will likely get MORE money with some "mystery" in the mix. Auction houses do it all of the time. Oh, and use weasel words like "ancient", "old time holding", "anything could be in here" etc.

If there are enough Chinese stamps to fill a page, it's worth taking a photo of those for ebay - otherwise a few representative pictures should do. But these are likely to make practically nothing, unfortunately.

The best way to describe what you have may very well be found here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiloware . The only way to perhaps see more than a few dollars would be by 1) sorting and selling them by country, and 2) scanning through them all on the chance that you come across something really unusual.

Since you are in Romania, your Romania holdings may be deeper than those of other countries. So when liquidating your collections, as you say you want to do, you might enjoy a slightly better return by separately offering the Romania.

My suggestion is rather speculative, but think about it.

Many of those small stamps in your photos are from the German Empire, early 20th century. They look to be in good shape and so in addition to what jleb is suggesting for your Romania stamps, you might get a good auction going for the German stamps as a set on ebay.
