    Johnni2Bad, do you know if this would work to add this on as an additional entry on an auction (I have bids on the auction so cannot change the original listing)

    I don't believe you can do so in those circumstances, but if you added the text (via HTML section) in the additional information box when requested, then you could check. If it doesn't work then you'll have to just use it from your next sale onwards.

    I've just managed to add it to my current sale as additional information, it just shows that the item was revised but there is no text added to the listing as the HTML does not do anything visible...! Works lovely thank you so much Jonni2bad!!!

    thats clever Johnni2bad!!
    Is there a way of making it work with mozilla firefox too?
    I can still save image as with that one.
    I'll still add it to my listings though because there are loads of people with netscape and internet explorer.

    Jonni2bad, I use Dreamweaver to create my listings so simply create an HTML page and copy and paste the code into the HTML field in ebay and it comes out fine! I don't do anything flashy and i'm completely self taught but it means you can put as much free pics in as you like and can set the layout out a lot easier :o)

    are you totally sure it's your pic they've pinched? if there's nothing to identify you on the pic, how do you know they pinched yours? just being curious :-)

    Yes they are definately my pics I can see my lovely new wallpaper in my living room!!

    Thanks for all you suggestions, I am definately going to e-mail the other seller and see what happens. I don't want to start feuding on ebay for items that only cost a few quid.

    Thanks Jonni2bad I will try that next time I list items, it looks like my husband may have to help me out or I'll PM if I am stuck!

    i'm not selling anything on ebay (i do buy when i found some bargains) but this subject interested me as i tried to get work out this problem : even your picture is script protected, the fact that you hover the mouse over the picture gives you an option to save it. Anyone know how to fix this?
    Life should not be taken seriously, as no one would get out alive
