Well, we are winding down on our time limit here. I'll take any more questions these last few minutes.

Other than that, see you at eBay Live, and always check out our website for news and other stuff we're up to! We're launching a new piece of software at eBay Live, so any serious seller will want to know about that! For now, it's seeeeecret!

thanks, everybody!

Greetings, great workshop!

I'm still working on the graphics, fonts and such for my listings, but I would like to know if you could view one of my listings to let me know what you think about the layout design I have already worked into my listings?

Item # 200114159774 is a good example of my layout so far.

Thanks!!

Kimberly

Hi, sabbykat.

1) I'm not sure you're allowed to use iframes in listings.

2) Too much text! See earlier advice I've given.

3) Not enough design. See earlier advice.

4) Don't say that the photos don't do it justice. That sounds like salesman-y words. And who wants to read that. I want to see a picture of exactly what this is, and I want to get excited. If the photos don't do it justice, please take better photos!

I just want to say Thanks for this workshop, not only to Debbie but also to you sellers who were willing to put up your listings for scrutiny. It was very educational to look at the listings and see what the feedback was! -- RQ
