I may be on the wrong board for this but my descriptions go on and on with no breaks, centering, new paragraphs, etc. Can I set it up thru Vendio so my page might look better??

What you need my friend is a bit of HTML. It's easy to learn

Here is a good website. There are other good websites out there also...just google for them.

I can't remember if Vendio uses UBB or HTML.

To get paragraph breaks in your text using HTML, you put in <br><br> or <P>. With UBB, I believe you'd substitute [ and ] for the < and >.

To get a single break (to put you on the next line), you'd put a single <br> or [br]

To center something in HTML you'd put <align=center> at the beginning and </a> at the end. Don'tknow if it's the same with UBB.

To bold something you put <b> before it & </b> at the end in HTML. In UBB use the brackets. For italics subtitute an i for the b.

Thanks so much for posting that. It was always the easiest and quickest for me to use. When my computer crashed, I lost the link and have been looking for it.

Bunny: I just use <center>and </center> and it centers my lines for me when needed. I guess both ways would work, though. . . .

Both way work--I just learned to do it the other way.
