*Ive been told by vendio that 72 images would be pulled down and displayed without buyer clicking the keys. However each day im only getting 24. My auctions end daily.
* Please post your counts and let vendio know its not working correctly.

Hello --
I apologize for the confusion regarding image counts in the Marquee Gallery. Let me clarify:
- Upon initial page load, the Marquee Gallery automatically scrolls through 24 of your items. This initial active set is limited in order to minimize impact on page load times for your buyers, and is always shown in closest-to-close order, in the same or similar category to the item being viewed (unless you insert the gallery manually, in which case it always shows items starting from the root, "All Categories" ) .
- In order for your buyers to view ALL of your items, they must interact with the Gallery by clicking on the right or left arrows, or by browsing the category tree. We do buffer 72 items at a time so that the response time to this user interaction is immediate (rather than issuing synchronous calls to our systems and being subject to possible network delays).
- Because of the built-in category browser in the Marquee Gallery, some sellers have found it particularly effective to categorize their items in as narrow a category as possible, so that users have multiple categories to choose from when interacting with your category browser. (For example, distinguishing between Vintage > Men's Clothing vs. Vintage > Unisex & T-Shirts, rather than lumping those items all into the same category).
Please let us know if there is any additional information we can provide.
