Once a battery of photos is posted, it would be nice to be able select the one the seller would prefer for the lead photo. I am one of those indecisive people that changes my mind! LOL

Another thought would be in the PlantFiles, at the bottom where it allows me to "add this plant to my journal", perhaps one to add this plant to the DG Marketplace? It could present the bones of a plant ad? How's that for lazy...

the first one is always the lead photo, just keep that in mind and decide beforehand. I find it helpful to design the entire add on word or notepad and just cut and paste it in. This makes it much easier to repeat payment info and shipping charges and other policies you never change

Absolutely on the cut and paste... The photo issue came up on another thread as that seller prefers to show photo of the specific plant for sale. T'would be nice to edit even that one...

The cut and pate can also be used within the HTML editor while the listings are being created. I always try to put "standard" kind of stuff at the end. Then I can open a previous listing, go to it's HTML stuff and copy from a certain obvious point to the end. I leave that little extra window open the entire time I'm creating listings. I paste it at the end and I'm done. Hard to explain, but it works for me.

I understand...I'm doing the same thing--I just used "word" because I figured those who don't constantly work on the computer (for what seems like 24/7 here this week) designing and maintaining a website would understand what I meant.

I usually have so many windows open the Vista now stacks them... ;)

I write myself Emails and keep my listings in a "Marketplace" folder, then the same as Word, etc, I can copy and paste. I put price, pics, etc .
I use Outlook Express if this matters.

Could we please have an option that lets us put latest orders first in the "items sold" section?It takes me about three days to scroll down to the new orders...well,maybe not quite that long.
