Hi,
I''m trying AW because Sold! the auction management program that I used for years went out of biz on 8/31. I have over 300 HTML auction templates which I'd love to use with AW Beta but can't get them to display properly. Here's an example of one:
<P>Bid with confidence! I've received over 1,000 positive feedbacks -- not one from a buyer. The only negative feedback posted in my Profile is retaliatory and came from three unethical sellers who misrepresented their item and refused a full refund. <P>Please keep in mind that antique Staffordshire ceramic pieces often have minor irregularities such as crazing, glaze bubble pops, glazed over chips, paint or glaze skips, particles under the glaze, firing separations, etc., because of early, primitive potting methods.<BR>Manufacturers packed the different types of pottery into saggars using racks and various supports. Consequently, stilt or pin marks appear on most pieces.<BR>Irregularities and stilt or pin marks are not considered as damage.<BR>The degree of crazing and the number and location of the stilt or pin marks are included in the description. If any other irregularity is atypical, it will be mentioned in the description. <P><B> <LI><FONT color=blue>Item:</B></FONT> Bone dish<B> <LI><FONT color=blue>Pattern name:</B></FONT> Argyle -- This pattern consists of curving plumes interspersed with small floral sprays, Gold has been applied to the design. <B> <LI><FONT color=blue>Manufacturer:</B></FONT> W.

Can you please tell me what to do?
Thanks for your time, Bonnie

Bonnie,
We are so glad you decided to join us!!
AW2K comes with quite a selection of Listing templates that are fully customizable. Everything you have displayed can be added to a listing template. I would suggest finding something that resembles what you might like, duplicate it and rename. Then start editing it. you can change the color, add page components of type HTML or hyperlinks, etc. And it is easy to do. I will be most happy to help you.
