Hey people. Just wanted to say after shopping around and trying a couple of other services besides the counter issue yall are the best. Thanks.

That being said when I make an auction and add pics they are huge. Is this my fault for taking them so large or is it the hosting service. Anyway to make them smaller they make the auction non visable on 1 page. Here is an example. Any suggesstions? Im thinking the 1st will be to take smaller pics lol

Hi The Oil Man,

I just reviewed this listing and it appears that you added 3 images to the listing by placing them directly in the description editor. When you place image in an auction in this manner, they appear in their original size.

To avoid this problem, just add your images to your listings by placing them in the "Select an Image" boxes on the Auctiva lister page. We then resize those images to 400 x 300 px for attractive appearance within the auction and, if a customer clicks on any of them, they will be able to see the original(supersized) images in a new browser window.

If you have any further questiongs, feel free to ask.

-Mike

Hi The Oil Man,

Actually, we automatically resize your images to 400 x 300 px when they are placed in the "Select an Image" boxes when creating your listings so, as long as you are placing images in your auctions via this method, YOU will not have to resize them.

I took a look at this listing and think personally it looks great.
I use this size as well and get many compliments from my buyers due to the fact because of the larger size they feel they can more closely inspect the watches I put up for sale.
If you will use the smaller photos make sure you use the option for buyers to click on them to enlarge, as it is a nice service to offer them.
