Error Message when resizing Images in Auctiva
Used Image re-sizing tool plenty of times without any trouble, but today it seems everytime I try to re-size my images to ensure compliance with Ebay's photo requirements, I get the following error message: You must enter a integer between 1 and, for example, 1024 if that's the longest dimension. Anyone else having this trouble?

Enhanced Listing Design?
Hi! I've been using Auctavia for a couple of months, not to a big extent. I tried using the design templates for listings, but the number seem to be very limited...but I thought I stumbled onto a bunch more somewhere else on this site, now I can't find them! Am I crazy? Or is there more than the few shown when I start a new listing? More importantly, I came across this listing in ebay, and was blown away! I really want to know if it's possible to have a listing this organized with store...

E-Mail Marketing Lists...
Has anyone heard word on when Auctiva will be rolling out this feature? They mention it the "Customers" link under the "Sales" tab on the site. I am supposed to receive email updates on the feature, but have never received anything on it. Also, in the meantime...does anyone have any recommendations on a 3rd party tool to try out?

Easy HTML
Hi everyone, I am gradually finding my way around Auctiva and find it a wonderful listing tool, so much more to it than old TurboLister which always seemed to throw a wobbly at the most critical times. One of the things that I am now slowly getting into is the HTML side of things and I have come across an extremely helpful web page which I thought I would share with anyone else who might be interested - it's at http://www.eobcards.com/tutorial3.htm .

Easy way to save active listings to reopen eBay store later????
I am going to make a temporary move and will not be where my inventory is to be able to ship. I intend to close my eBay store for a couple of months to save the subscription fees, but would like to find an easy way to re-open it when I return. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Am thinking that I need to somehow mark or move all active listings into a folder before I close it, but then I am concerned about quantities on listings that have more than 1 item ( especially if some have...

Ebay store listings through Auctiva
We recently started a small business through ebay. We have lots of interest, and pretty decent sales. I discovered Auctiva at the very beginning of our venture and have since realized what a valuable tool it has been thus far. Currently we do all of our listings just on ebay. We are now expanding, and want to open an ebay store, but I'm not quite sure how that works in reference with Auctiva. My question is this: how do I get listings to go to my ebay store when I do open it? Is it really a...

EBID

eBid.net
I would think that Auctiva might consider adapting the listing tool for eBid.net. That site seems very easy to adapt to as the format is a straight Excel spreadsheet capable of accepting up to 500 listings at a time, though I have been doing 5 at a time. I'm pasting my listings in very easily. Obviously there are some propritory considerations, but eBid is very responsive to new sellers. I asked for a subcategory in N Scale Model RR and within a couple of hours the N Scale category had the...

Latency problem in Java uploading tool
Hello, I wonder oif the rest of you have experienced this, & if so, you have managed to overcome the problem. This concerns the "latency" when uploading images. I normally use the JAVA. The latency is he time-delay BEFORE your uploaded images actually appear in any of your folders. This time-delay, as I've found out, could be anywhere from 20 mins. to more than an hour, & is NOT too convenient when you want to use any of the uploaded images to do a quick listing & posting.
