I think it depends on how many images you use on the top of your auction. I did notice an auction last night that had 3 across and it was bigger than my monitor. Do you use more than two?

eBay wouldn't even blink at less than 10,000 sellers. By then, EASU would have taken in $200,000 plus monthly fees. And what do those fees buy you? An exclusive chance to join another auction site when EASU calls for a strike. IMO this thing has ripoff written all over it.
There is already an advocacy group at auctionusers.org. They have several thousand members. And membership is free.

If you use 3 large, or even 2 larger, graphics at the top, WITHOUT AUTOMATIC REDUCTION, the page comes up real wide. If you use 2 or three pics a top, be sure to specify reduction (which by the way, AW folks, should be specifiable by listing, not in the global specs.)

If I have more than 2 images, I change the template to one where the images are at the side. Works out much better and the auction is not too wide for the screen.
I had the same problem for awhile.
Only put two photos at the top and that should solve your problem.
I tried them down the side, however, I feel that it makes it very cumbersome to read the write up that way especially if it is along one.
What I do know is put any extra photos in the body of the auction as normal photos.
If you want to see what I mean do a search for JMJ on Ebay and look for the St. Benedict Crucifix.
