    There has to be a larger market for this. Agreed?

    The eBay merchant had a 2 year run of editing HTML, and resizing images for each eBay listing. The process of listing an item was time consuming. Web code was edited by hand for each eBay item to display enriched with a column layout, new fonts, and background images via HTML and CSS. The merchant would even resize images in iPhoto and then upload to the server using the FTP client Fetch.

    After seeing this process, I knew it would be beneficial to use ExpressionEngine by creating a custom form with fields that mirrors sections of content for each listing. The merchant can now easily upload a number of photos at once, complete no more than 10 custom fields, and have the generated web code prepared for listing on eBay.
