thefacebookgeek Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Isn’t it wonderful if we can format our Gig Descriptions? Take a look at the sample gigs image attached; same gig, same description; different format.The top one is our current default format with no ‘carriage return’ whatsoever.The below is my dream Gig Description, where we can allow carriage return/new line, use color, change text typeface or styles etc.Please make this happen. EASIER on the eyes and easier for potential buyers to read and not miss anything. Thank you! :-B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty_dil Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Yes…Good Idea…I also like that if it is available… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tn5rr2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I have felt that way since the beginning. everyones gig descriptions are crammed tight into a little space and have absolutely no visual benefit whatsoever to the gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aingham69 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 This has been something that has annoyed me from the start. It’s difficult to make the information easy to read when there are no paragraphs etc. which leads to most buyers refusing to read the full amount.Also, having different colours really will help certain parts stand out so buyers are drawn to requests to contact the seller first or to make them aware of certain things that they will not do. It won’t catch all awkward buyers but the majority of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabricafifa Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Yes,Ifullyagreewithyou-it’saboutasifficulttoreadasthisis 😉A simple RTF editor like evilbay would be good - as would the option of adding a proper linked URL to any Flickr pages with samples.

hotwebideas Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I agree. Some limited HTML would work. I think Fiverr is limiting the HTML, but I cannot read people’s gig descriptions when I want to purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabricafifa Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I’d shy away from HTML, most folks just don’t understand how it works - simple RTF editing like a basic text editor is easier to handle for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
multygraphics Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 yeah formatting should be allowed sometimes it become very difficult to understand the gigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meanmartini Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I also agree 200%. As a buyer it can be very hard to read descriptions as they are now. I have seen people attempt to block and highlight certain points with dashes, stars, etc. and while I appreciate why they do it, it ends up looking slightly unprofessional. As does a solid paragraph of information.It is unnatural to read like that, and I think people generally like to read as little and as quickly as possible. So bullet points just make sense. Your post is a perfect example of what a gig should look like. I would love to see this implemented in the very near future, both as a buyer and potential future seller!
