you purchased a template for your auction or buy it now listing at ebay

First know that you did a very smart move.
A good looking sale page gives the buyers good impression on your product and increases the chance that they will buy it from you.
It shows that you are a serious seller and like to pay attention and invest time in your selling activity.
But what to do now? how to use it?

Here are simple instructions for using html graphic templates in your sale page:

1. Open the text file that the template's seller sent you. It's a file that its name ends with .txt and it usually open in Notepad.
Before you start working on it, I recommend you to save a copy of the file by clicking on "Save as" in the file menu and give it another name, so in case you're making mistakes and mess up things, you can go back to the original file.

2. Select all the text by clicking on ctrl+a keys or by choosing "select all" in the edit menu or by right click and select "select all". Copy the text by clicking ctrl+c keys, or by choosing "copy" in the edit menu or by right click and select "copy".


3. Now the fun begins!
Go to your selling page on ebay and paste the text into "Describe the item you're selling" box. Paste it into the HTML display.


4. Choose the standard display. You can write your text in the text lines, change text color, fonts and size.

5. How to add an image?
To add an image you have to save and publish it at a hosting website.
You can do it for free at:
www.photobucket.com
www.imageshack.us
www.tinypic.com
www.imagecave.com
and many more. If you have your own website or a blog you can publish the image there.
After publishing the image at the hosting site, right click on it and select "copy image url".
Go to the ebay selling page and choose again the HTML display. Paste the image url into the text that says: . Delete the word "yourphotourlhere" and insert your photo url address between the quotation marks (very important).

6. Go to the standard display and see if you like the appearance of the page. Click on preview to see well.
You can delete images, change fonts color, size, style and align to the left or to the center.

Hope I made it clear and simple to you!
