Check out what's new! Here's a list of new features that will add

save time and stay organized when you sit down to create your auction
listings:
New Site
Upgrades
Our new version offers you new features that make our system work
better with more browsers and will lead to more exciting upgrades around
the corner. We know it is always painful to some when we do an upgrade and
pure joy for others. To give you time to digest if you need it, we will
always include a link to the previous site at the bottom of the "Main
Page" that you log in to.
Major Change:
The most major change is to the Action bar in the Listing Generator. We
have condensed the Actions into two button menus. Here is an example of
these buttons:
Our Action bar was quickly running out of space for all the new options
and control you will have in the future. It is important for us to have
your workspace instantly visible and not have to scroll down to start your
auction, and with a new box for categorizing your listings when you save
them. We certainly hope that those of you who find this troublesome now,
can appreciate why it needs to happen.
Notable Changes:
New: Categories in Saved Listings. You can now create
categories to manage your saved listings. A saved listing can be in more
than one category. When saving your listing, just click on each category
you want it to appear in. If listings are already saved, you may
categorize your listings from within the Saved Listing page. This is
also where you would create your categories.
New: Get Code in Saved Listings. You no longer have to
open your listing to grab your code. In many cases you can even do it
from Preview.
New: Delete photos in Selected Listings Now, when you
delete a saved listing you no longer need, you have the option of having
the photos in those listings deleted as well. Caution!!!
Remember, that if your photo is deleted, it will NOT show up in your
auction, so make sure the photos that get deleted are not in another
listing.
New: Update/Replace old Listing Profile info in your Saved
Listings with updated Listing Profile info in your
Preferences. Made changes to your profile and want the changes
automatically updated in some or all of your older saved listings as
well? Now you can do it.
Enhancement: Get Code There is often much confusion in the
Get Code options. Hopefully we have made it clear that the 'Copy Code'
button is the preferred method. We have also modified this to 'almost'
work like it does in IE for Firefox, Netscape, Opera and Safari users.
While you can still download and email code, these are considered
'Advanced' options and have been moved out of the action bar to avoid
confusion for new users.
Enhancement: Actionbar 'Buttons' We are simply running out
of space in the action bar adding new features. Actionbar 'Buttons' tidy
up the screen by triggering flyout menus. The default is to popup the
menu when you click the button. You can change this behavior to clicking
instead in your System Preferences.
Change: Empty Pictureholders If you select 12 photos and
then decide you don't want 2 or 3 of them, you probably cleared the
photos you didn't want and then got frustrated when you previewed your
listing only to see the empty photos? So then you went back and adjusted
the # of photos only to find the last 2 or 3 gone, and you had to re-add
them to the empty placeholders? Well, we all make mistakes, so now you
can clear at will. When you preview, the empty placeholders are ignored.
When you get your code, they will be ignored, and the # of photos will
be adjusted as well. If you REALLY need the old behaviour (I saw one
user request it, so here it is) you can go back to the old behaviour in
your System Preferences under the 'Auction Listing Generator' section.
(Remove unchosen photos in preview and code:)
Move: Show Captions This is now in the photo area where it
belongs. Captions are meant to be dispayed for the most part, so we
decided to get this out of the way.
Old: Flash logos Old features were in the last version,
but not publicized. So maybe now is the time. swf (Flash) images can be
uploaded to your Photo Manager with the following limitation. They will
be automatically categorized in your 'My Logos' category. They cannot at
this time be used in a listing photo area, but only in the Logo area. As
soon as we finish reworking our templates, this restriction will be
lifted.
Old: Super Picker Want to create a listing fast? Put all
the images you want in a listing into a category. Now open a new listing
and ignore the # of photos (well, you need at least 1). Now in the image
picker, choose that category and you will see a button labeled 'Super
Picker'. Click the button and all the photos in that category will be
automatically added and selected to your listing. Caution. I say
'added', but it does not add to previously selected images, it replaces
them.
SSB takes every precaution to ensure our upgrades are bug free and work
with a wide variety of browsers, however, it is impossible to ensure that
something wasn't overlooked, or some new feature may not work properly in
your choice of a browser. For this reason, to avoid any disruption to your
listing, we include a link to the last version of the software in case you
experience a problem with the new version. Please contact the Help Desk if
you experience any problem with the new version.
If you need to
use the older version, look for this link: ---Version 3.1 Site---
