Oh, wow, right in the middle editing my snipes and adding more, the images suddenly appeared.

Wonderful! And the images don't clutter up the screen at all. I highly recommend this feature be enabled. It makes reviewing your snipes so much better.

You rock, Mario. Many thanks.

OK, please try again, it should work now.

Thanks for going this extra mile, Mario.

No, in your case the problem is probably in the fact that the seller is hosting his images himself, or using some not-so-known image hosting service.

I'll see what I can do about it.

I wonder if I have to clear everything out (delete) and start all over for it to work.....

I'm going to wait to see if you have any other instructions or suggestions before I do this.

I thought that might have been the case, so I had deleted an item to add back but the image still did not appear.

I even tried using a different web browser, but no dice.

I forgot to mention - the feature will work fine for all the images hosted by ebay, inkfrog, channeladvisor, auctiva... If hosted by some other third-party, it may not work. I will do my best to widen the support in the future.

Yes. As mentioned, this feature works only for items that were added *after* I implemented the feature. Hence, if you want to see thumbnails for your existing items, you have to edit them, even if you leave all the information the same.

Great, thanks!

There seems to be a glitch, though. I changed the settings on my account, but no images still. I logged out and cleared the cache on my web browser and logged back in, but still no images. Is there something that I'm not getting right?

You convinced me, and since it wasn't too difficult, I just added this feature. You have to enable it on your Gixen settings page first.

Images may not show for items that you added before I implemented this feature - but they will show up if you edit your items.

When similar items with the exact same or similar title listing are grouped, I found myself making changes in bidding on the wrong item. If you can make it as an option, that would be very useful.

Thanks for considering it.

I'll think about it... I am afraid that the interface may be overcrowded, but maybe as an option to be enabled on the settings page...

One of the things I liked about another sniping site is how it includes an image of the item to be sniped. When you have a long list of snipes set, it helps to have the image included with the item title. I've been going bug-eyed going through my list of 15 when I want to track something or make an edit.

Would this be something that could be implemented for Gixen?


Thanks.
