If you do that, then you skip over the description, Tom -
Certainly not what I want my prospective buyers to do.

But what is really going on here, is they want you not to like the
default setting so you pay them money for those silly "fancy" styles.

I checked out putting my photo at the top - thought it would be a bit better
but what it then did was center my text so it looked like a poem by George
Herbert - not the look i wanted, either.

The whole style is diminishing the importance of the item description that
the seller writes... which is key.

This all reminds me of the recent observation on some news program that
all the news people are being pushed to speak faster.  (forgot where i saw
it though.)
