Hi, I have put up my first auction on e-bay and would like honest suggestions and comments. I don't seem to have any control over the description formating and would like to know how you do it? I also can't figure out how to get a bead picture to show up here on wet canvas please help.
Thanks Bev

Hi Bev
That is my mothers name
anyways
to upload a pic to wc or be able to view it on wc you have to upload to wc
click on the uploader button at the top of the page
then find the pic (appropriately sized) on your pc and upload it
it will spit out code on the next page after you do this
copy that code and paste it into your message or signature and it will appear

the link of the pic i clicked was way bigggg

your ebay auction is nice
i would suggest to clarify the pics of the beads so the buyers can see in detail what they are buying ... just to rest their minds
to format your font you use html like any other page.. <br> for line break ... etc... if you do a search on google.com for html key or html even you can find lots of code.
just like how your inserted your picture...
you can leave and indention on each side of the font...
i use the html brackets <blockquote> and end with </blockquote>
so your text wont run to the edge of both the left and right side

Just thought I would up date my progress.
I learned enough html to fix my e-bay description. I also learned how to make pictures smaller.


now to post a picture here---? why won't the picture come here instead of the address?

I don't think this went, I have the & sign in the name maybe that is the problem. After using the uploader the picture showed with a note that it had been resized and it was ok but does not show in Preview reply. Any ideas why this doesn't show even though it appeared to go thru upload ok?

Thanks Bev
