How To Remove a Image Once Live

bamamelenaMember

Hi...

I have viewed all of the tutorials. I have finally figured out how to add pictures after listing, but how can you remove one after it's live? I went to revise, and wasn't able to do anything.

I also did a search on the boards for 'remove image' and didn't find anything helpful.

Thanks in advance!!

Hi it can be done but you must have some knowledge of HTML. If you do go to your view tab on your browser while you have the auction open in it click the view tab at the top and hit the source tab which will open notepad displaying your source code. then click edit on the notepad click find and type in img src. it will then start going to all the images on the auction. the one you will be looking for will have Auctiva.com in it and you will have to sort through them. When you find it it will look something like this. This is a photo off of one of my auctions which i pulled out of my source codehttp://img.auctiva.com/imgdata/4/6/5/1/1/1/webimg/60350999_tp.jpg you need to delete the reference to it from your auction.If you are not comfortable with HTML you are pretty much stuck with it as is.Good luck Steve

Hi Taz - Hate to disagree but there is another way. Just revise your saved listing in
Auctiva (remove the pic in this case), then replace the HTML in your active listing as follows: (This is the HTML dummy method for us HTML dummies.)

1) Locate your listing in your Saved Listings folder in Auctiva, open it, make any necessary changes, preview, and save.
2) In your Saved Listings folder, click the <HTML> icon to the right of your listing.
3) Select all of the HTML in the popup box and copy it.
4) Locate the item on eBay and click the "Revise your item" link.
5) Click "Edit Description" then click the "HTML" tab.
6) Select all of the HTML that's there, paste the copied HTML in its place, and save your changes.

Always more than one way to skin a cat as they say. (Sorry all you cat lovers out there.)

Boy do i feel like the horses backside

I have been going in and editting my HTML on my auctions when I don't like them and here it is that simple as going into my saved auctions!That will serve me right for teaching myself HTML! Well I learned something tonight that will save me some time also. Thank you Ninth

At least you have been teaching yourself HTML. I on the other hand will avoid it as long as possible. You have a head start, keep it going.

This is what I learned to do, I went to revise listing, scrolled down to pictures that I wanted off the listing, right clicked it and cut. Image gone. Not sure if that is faster or not. S.

Hi Susan - When you deleted the image, how did this affect the rest of the listing surrounding the image? Did it leave a "hole" in the listing or any other strange looking effect?
