We sell cars on eBay Motors and would like a better "About Me" page.
The one we currently have is awful. Please design a better one. It
does not have to be complicated, just nice to look at and functional.
We need to use all the links and pictures that are in the page though.
No java is allowed, as per eBay regulations:

Hello Traderadier,
I reorganized your data for you. Should you not like the layout, all
you have to do is ask for clarification, and I will do all I can until
you are satisfied.
The major design hurdle here was - there is too many images for the
amount of text that is available. You can always find the text in the
HTML and add more at your leisure to 'beef it up'. I didn't use any
new graphics as you stated you wanted to use all the same ones that
are currently available.
Insert this HTML in place of your Ebay default template. You can do
this by scrolling to the bottom of your current Ebay "About Me" page
when logged in, and clicking on 'Edit using Html'.
Here is the code:

Let me know how it works for you. Please ask for clarification before
rating this answer, and I'll do all I can to help!
Thanks,
SgtCory
Hi,
I appreciate your work, but I was looking for a bit more than some
formatting. I want an all new layout, but with the same text and
links. Some colors would be nice too.
Hello Traderaider -
I did change the layout :-) I think I may have worded what I did
incorrectly. I redesigned your whole page, not just 'prettied up' the
HTML code itself.
Did you implement this yet to see if you liked the layout?
Here is some of what I did:
- All images are aligned on the right for a neater appearance
- All text bullets are in question format from a buyers perspective
- Both partner links added to lower right and aligned to match layout
And a few more cosmetic changes.
Here are two images showing the comparison of the before and after:
Before using new HTML:
http://www.hostcorps.com/imagehost/u/hostcorps/google/beforehtml.gif
After adding updated HTML:
http://www.hostcorps.com/imagehost/u/hostcorps/google/afterhtml.gif
To make these changes, you will need to copy the HTML I gave you into
your "About Me" page editing section on Ebay.
Please let me know if it is indeed the layout change you are unhappy
with, and I will try to get something more in tune with your needs.
Thanks for the clarification!
SgtCory
Hello,
Please make the partner links more prominent, maybe move them near the
center of the page. Believe it or not, a lot of people click on the
links and actually make transactions. Also, please see if you can
spice up the color scheme/layout. It seems to sterile, don't you
think?
I sure can!
I was trying to follow your guidlines as stricly as possible :
"It does not have to be complicated, just nice to look at and
functional.
We need to use all the links and pictures that are in the page
though."
Now that I am aware of your focus, we should be able to get this
corrected shortly. Thanks for asking for clarification. I should be
finished with this tonight.
SgtCory
Hello again,
OK - spiced it up a little. Here is your new code. Try it and let me
know what you think -
