Just to say, it would behoove you to use paragraphs in the description area of your products. It makes it SO much easier to read than enormous, run-on chunks of text, like the below screenshot (text blurred for obvious reasons)...

Very few products make me want to buy them based on the promo images alone; so I read the readmes and text descriptions. But when I see something like this, I close the page and don't consider the product further. Text like this is just too visually confusing!

The below example isn't the only such text description I've seen around here.
Ergo my thread.

Please know that I mean this to help you, and not to sound nasty or mean. HUGz!

 I agree. The mere thought of a chunk of text the size of your example makes my eyes glaze over.

That said, the formatting on older products went bonkers when the new servers were installed. If this is an older product, it may have initially looked much more legible.

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA

TrekkieGrrrl, thanks for your response. : ) Y'know, your intuition is spot on! I thought this was a newer product, but it turns out it was something from 2005! I didn't know about any possible formatting conflicts due to server changes. : )

Well, now, my thread just wasted everybody's clicks! Sorry folks!   (And thanks again, Trekkie! I never was good at reading something without intermittent paragraphs).
