Template help PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

Hi,

If it's the photo-hosting fee that's the immediate problem that's forcing the decision, you can host at photobucket and use the copy - paste of their links to the one-page lister. In the Image Selection section, use "switch to externally hosted images".

I remember your template The image tags are all [IMAGEx_URL] in your template. http://www.practiceboard.com/?10324440

You'd need to manually remove and replace the tags with real host URL links or another method to use outside of Auctiva.

Danno, thank you so much. Yes, I have 2 sites, and 2 accounts here. I am very appreciative of the service provided here for me over the years, but I can't afford the plans offered. The one shot price deal would have been fine, but the news came to late I already paid for another service

So say if I use something like clic-pic, or just html, just remove the middle section where the picture links are?

Hi,

Where it has <IMG src="[IMAGE1_URL]" width="400" style="margin-bottom: 15px; border: solid 2px #eb1537;" /> in the code, replace the tag [IMAGE1_URL] with URL link to the hosted picture, e.g. "www.mypichost.com/myacct/picture.jpg" , or you use whatever substitute tag another provider might have in their system (need to check with them). Sounds like you need that first option for direct/hotlinked provider, like photobucket.

You'd need to do that for each tag. You'd also need to remove the <img .... /> tags for unused images for any direct listing (tagless) system type method. Auctiva's system automatically removes the unused code for unused pic tags.

Danno, thank you so much. Hmmm, I guess I won't be able to come here after the 1st

Hi,

I'd rather give folks a helping hand and wish them well. That way they feel they are part of a Community and always Welcome, rather than leave with bad feelings (if they got to go). I understand the price problem only too well. The margin is thin on the vintage sellers and they need aloooot of pictures to get a sale.

I think there is more that's not yet disclosed, and am advising a wait and see for a short while until all the facts are on the table. Look at options, YES, but never close doors.

Check back occasionally and especially watch for eBay announcements....

Danno, you are a doll. No I don't want to close any doors with Auctiva, I cannot sing their praises enough. I saved a great deal of money over the years, and for that I will be forever thankful.

It's not just the changes here, but based on a few other comments, I have a feeling we are going to get hit with a big bang come September. So I've decided to go it alone with a site, and still list on ebay for as long as I can.
