Quote:***eBay Picture Services for About Me Pages*** 

November 30, 2005 | 04:55PM PST/PT


To make About Me pages even more user-friendly, you will be able to use eBay Picture Services (EPS) for your About Me page in the next few days. You will be able to add up to two free images to your About Me page through EPS, which will be hosted on eBay. Uploaded images can be up to 2 megabytes in size.

We are also adding a link to the About Me Page discussion board on the About Me landing page to help you find expert assistance when building your own About Me page.

You can learn more about EPS in the Picture Services help area.

You know were this is heading don't you?

Currently it states: (once you click on the "Additional Information" link)

Links from your About Me Page
You may link to your own Web store or Web site. However, you may not directly offer any non-eBay merchandise on the About Me page itself.

I bet soon a "policy change" will go into effect stating that:
You may link to your own ebay Web store BUT YOU MAY NOT link to your own Web site
or tell potential buyers about your website on the ebay About Me page.

Overstock doesn't allow linking to web site stores. http://auctions.overstock.com/cgi-bin/au...i?PAGE=FAQ&MODE=ANSW&FQCID=8&FAQID=46
