Evening All

Please can someone help me?

It's been a while since I've Ebayed and I can't remember how to set out the type - with colour, spacing etc.

I know I'm being dense! :o Thanks in advance!

    Bit confused by what you want. :o

    You just type in the box :confused:
    Clicking on the standard tab next to the HTML one makes it easier for most things, and then there are options:

    Font
    Font size
    Letter Awithcolours is colours,
    Bold
    Italic
    Underline
    Left align
    Middle align
    Right align
    Bullet points
    Lists

    Don't know what the next ones do though ;)
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine

    Thank you Turkish Delight!

    I've uploaded the photos and am typing the text in the box marked "Describe the item you're selling", but there are no options to change the font, size or colour. I can't even press return - very odd.

    I can't see a Standard or HTML tab! Don't know what I'm doing wrong and there doesn't seem to be any options on the Ebay help menu...

    Thanks so much for your help! :)

    Ah, you're on quick sell. :)
    There still should be those options though, that's very odd.
    There should be a link (switch to form with more choices) to switch to the proper version right at the top (That might need you to upload your photos again though!).
    Might work better, but you never know with ebay.
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine

    No, I'm on Advanced Sell!
    There are still no options. Glad it's not me. I'm going to email Ebay now.
    Thanks again for your help, much appreciated :)

    Hi Turkish Delight if you're watching...
    Ebay responded and apparently it's because I'm using Safari and Ebay doesn't support that browser, so problem solved!
    Cheers, Mac (on a mac! ;))
