my first postings are huge on ebay. why?

silkyloveMember

I'm a real newbie and struggled through my first postings. I don't like how they look - they more than fill the screen.

I also tried to remove the scrolling gallery because it makes me nuts, but when I followed the directions on Auctiva "find the letters ASW in the HTML code and remove the text in-between" I couldn't find the letters in the code.

I've read the faq's but if there's anything even simpler for the severely auction writing challenged I've love to check it out.

It took me a year to get used to Ebay, so I'm pretty slow, but I need to upgrade because my items usually sell well and I want to post more.

My name on Ebay is Silkylove.
Thanks,
Carol

Hi Carol,

I looked at your listings and spotted the problem. You are using a Horizontal (side-by-side) grouping of the book images that forces the template wide to accomodate them in two of the listings. Notice how that didn't happen with the grouping Slideshow on the third listing Glorious Refrains.

I'd recommend grouping Paired or you might try my favorite (for books) the Thumbnail. Check this antiquarian listing of mine recently completed for Thumbnail example (hover mouse over Thumbnails in the listing)
