Okay...let me confess it here and now:

A correctly exposed photograph of your item is worth 50 animated gifs.

Dump the blinding psychodelic background, it's killing off your text.

Grab a work lamp out of the garage, then reshoot the hula doll.

Better yet, take the item outside on the deck on a cloudy day ("God's Neutral Density Filter" and take a couple of pix.

Go to vidpro2's site
www.auctionbytes.com on the right hand side there is a short cut to taking better pix...it's the best on the web.

I have a cable modem, but your humble 14.4 or 28.8 customers might fall out of love with you!

Best of luck!

She's looking for help, for heaven's sake. Is there some problem with trying to give her some?

Toke,
Read the other thread...we're being "funned"

Heck, I thought with that much feedback, either she's blind or her customers are!

LOL

Your kindness is appreciated very much! I do, however, have my tongue firmly in my cheek.

Everyone

The first post was definitely legit! I really needed the criticism, which helped substantially!

I thought it would be funny to act as if everyone's suggestions didn't mean a hill of beans to me and post the worst auction of all time.

Did I do it?

cb -- please post your template here, I think we all should make our auctions that cool!!

(Course, we might not sell much, but just think of the entertainment we'll provide to bored browsing buyers.)

Hello Everyone,

I'm afraid I have to lock this thread as we have no way to prove the originator of the thread is the same person holding the auction.

Besides, links to auctions are against the CG's
