I love all the options offered by the new custom templates but I have found that no matter how I arrange an auction with a lot of pictures, the listings get too wide, even for my 20" monitor. I thought it would work with the re-sized "Click-On" pictures, but no luck.
The old templates had an option to stack all the pictures on top or on bottom, which works very well. Even placing all the pictures to the left or right also worked with "Click-Ons" in the old templates, but I tried that with the custom templates and the listing was still too wide. I don't think buyers will want to scroll back and forth in order to view the entire listing.
So when I need a lot of pictures, I am using the old templates even if I prefer the new custom ones.
Are there any plans to add the "Stack On Top" and "Stack On Bottom" picture options to the new templates? I am hoping there are. Thanks, Genie

Hi Genie,
Yes, we are working on changing this so that more images can go toward the top of the listing (rather than having anything beyond 3 images go to the very bottom). If you have a lot of images, you can also place them in your item description using HTML.
I would like to mention that the No Layout option places all images on the bottom, underneath the payment and shipping sections. We will be renaming this layout in the future to make this more clear. If you use this layout, you can put text in your listing telling people to scroll down for the images. This can work to your advantage as well, since it will cause people to have to scroll through your standard sections so they'll see your payment and shipping terms.
