How do you list it organized?

Whenever i try to list something, it all turns out to be in one big paragraph with one plain color. I always see in many different places that they have it all organized with different colors and all. How do you do that?

If you want it neat or purdy just use html. That's how I get my auction pages all spruced up.

Here is an example.

I use Dreamweaver for this because there is NO WAY I'd have the patience to do something like that all by myself.

Also, I think eBay has a service or something like that for this but I think they charge extra to use the service.

I thought eBay had an HTML program type thing? I haven't listed anything
in awhile, but I remember it being available back then. It was simple
and handled basic HTML options, but you could do things like paragraphs,
bolding, colors, links, etc.

Here are some basic examples of HTML codes that might come in handy
for you Harry.

Bold Text: Insert Text here
Underline: Insert Text here
Italics: Insert Text here

To insert a link, use this:

<a href="http://www.websiteurl.com">Insert Text you want to appear here, as it will be what your visitors read and click on</a>

To insert a picture, use:

<img src="http://www.websitehostingtheimage.com">

To create a one sentence break, insert 
To start a new paragraph, insert 

To have a centered heading or title, do this:

<center>Title of your auction or whatever</center>

Doing that will set it apart from the rest of your paragraph, which will be
left aligned by default.

If you need more help or want to know something specific, just PM me.

Yes, eBay does have a really basic page that you can use if you're HTML illiterate, such as adding color, dividing lines, etc. Go here to see it.

Cool, thanks you guys. I just found out that there are two things that u can click on when u sell something, and mine was on the HTML one so it would just write everything in one paragraph. Thanks for all the info.
