GarageSale question

Naive user question: if the template offers you an unfilled drop box
(eg three drop boxes in the template, only two images added) it doesn't
actually put that drop box on the auction listing does it?

The drop box is still showing up in preview - not sure if it disappears
or not as this is the first time I've used GarageSale.

Cheers,
Ian

If you mean the images for the auction, it doesn't do that here. No
empty boxes for unfilled image slots in the Preview.

Hmm. Which version? I'm using 4.0.6 at the moment.

I see this in preview:
<http://eruvia.org/imagedump/GarageSale-20080504-143608.png>

(snap contains no identifiable account stuff, so am within the no
advertising rules I think).

I'm guessing the box disappears on posting, but it's a potentially
expensive way to find out and look rather silly if it turns out I'm
wrong.

I am using 4.0.6 and I don't see anything like that. Have you tried
other templates? (if you are indeed using their templates) and see
whether it still shows?

Decided to take the risk after noticing that if I dragged in a random
image, another drop area appeared below it ie. one appears to let you
add new images, no matter how many images you've added.

Not sure I like what it's done with the auction though - has left two
images in a large format at the bottom in what looks like a second
page. Would link but that would obviously blow the no advertising rule.

Ah well, worth a shot. Will see if I get it right next time.

Cheers,
Ian

It's worth persevering with GarageSale - it works well for me. Slightly
unintuitive but it does a good job.

Ian.
