I am pretty new to HTML and I have always used predefined templates when listing aucitons. I would really like to create my own template with my graphics (backgrounds, graphics, borders, etc.)

Is this possible and can anyone provide me with any instructions.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Unfortunately we do support other templates. You can insert HTML in your item description box so if you were to create graphics and construct something offline, provided it falls within eBay's rules for listing auctions, you can use that in your listings.

Regards,

Sonya

That's what I do, and it very successful. Choose or create an AW template that compliments your desired look, then - as Sonya suggests - paste your HTML code into the description area.

Do the same thing for default message, and you'll wind up with a good re-useable template.

It'll take some experimenting to get it right, but the preview capability helps the process along.

Good Luck!

Hi Sonya & Feasibleenterprises,

Thanks for your responses. I will play around with some html in my descriptions and see how it looks.

Thanks again

I'd love to view what a sample of what you've customized (feasible... sorry... I can't see your user name while I'm typing this!). Can you send me an item # so that I can view a customized template! Thanks.

Los655,

Here is an eBay item: 1875920065

First, I built a tempalte in AW with the background and photo position I prefer. That is saved with a unique name.

Then, I create a new listing. The HTML "title" is pasted into the Description area of the AW tempalte.

The shipping info is HTML code pasted into the Default Text Listing under Global Preferences.

I then save it as an inventory profile.

To use it, I bring up the profile, edit the text in the HTML "title" and add descriptive text below the HTML code.

I'm still experimenting, but I like the way this is working.
