I am a beginner too, with basic CSS and HTML knowledge sorted I am going to provide you with eBay CSS manipulation nuggets to build up a more custom eBay shop.
Lesson one - Creating a border around your gallery display in your eBay shop.
Taking a look at how the ebay shop gallery display is controlled by looking at the source you an see that you have various CSS elements to play with.
To place a border around your gallery items you will need to manipulate the table gallery class td.gallery.
So, create a css file in notepad like this:
td.gallery
{
border:1px #FF00FF solid;
}
I have chosen hot pink for the hairfreax ebay shop.
Navigate to ‘Manage my shop’ > ‘Shop Design’ > ‘Display settings’ and change your shop header display.
Link to your css file like this:
<link href="http://www.kidsontalks.com/ebay.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
and include the additional information in your shop header.
Save the settings then see what has happened!
Lesson two will be changing the background of the gallery view, using CSS.
