Areez 11906 Report post Posted October 18, 2012 hum, it could be the HTML coding on the ads. what file format is it saved as? Without seeing the format itself i wouldn't know :( best approach is to copy paste the whole ads, then rework the alignment? i might even create more confusion haha- if i do sorry!

Gabriella Laurence 301887 Report post Posted October 18, 2012 best approach is to copy paste the whole ads, then rework the alignment? It is. I often copy and paste my ads- in full or just in parts- and usually have to work on the formatting once it's pasted. It can be time consuming if it's a long ad but not as much as if I were to write the entire ad again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted October 18, 2012 I figured out why it is not lining out right. I used to cut and past my adds from a notepad from my desktop. Recently I had a hard drive crash and I lost a lot of my data (cars and computers are money pots!!!) So I have been cutting and pasting from this site. It may have caused me problems because it is different coding(that's what I'm thinking anyway). If I don't get crazy spaces between paragraphs, I get a different font. So now I have to organize all my adds again and rewrite everything, errrr. I thought my computer came to life and was playing tricks on me, ha,ha. This is a more logical way of thinking. Weird or what? lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest N***he**Ont**y Report post Posted October 18, 2012 Peachy when you are cut and pasting your adds you can adjust your fonts to making them they way that you want by highlighting them as cut and paste. You will see all the script hi lighted now. Go to the top of the of the tool bar and select your font. Then choose the size of your font and then click with your mouse. Your Font should now be standardized and your paragraphs should remain the same.Hope this is of some help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted October 19, 2012 (edited) Ya, I used to configure everything for example font, size,ect,ect after I cut and pasted my adds from the notepad program on my desktop. Alas, I no longer have my adds saved on notepad due to my hard drive crash, little tears, I know. So now I have to go through all my adds in my statistics on my profile page, cut and paste all of them on to notepad again. Or I have to rewrite the adds again.(I hope that I don't have to) I found that when I cut and pasted adds from cerb and posted it back on cerb that the spacing was off. When I went to fix it by edit it just turned out to be a mess. The font even changed at times. I thought my puter was possessed or something. So I'm thinking it has to do with the coding somehow. I don't know all that much about computers but I do know that I was getting pretty frustrated this morning. I used to just cut and paste my adds from the statistics but found that the pictures made my adds go fobar. So I just saved all my adds to notepad, then I started writing adds on notepad and cut and pasted them on cerb. I would cut and paste my adds, then I would make them look pretty and lastly I would add my pictures. It did take a little bit of effort but like Gabriella stated it took less time than rewriting a whole add. Notepad always worked so I'm narrowing it down. Time to go back to good old notepad. So now I have some homework to do. Edited October 19, 2012 by Guest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phaedrus 209521 Report post Posted October 21, 2012 Alas, I no longer have my adds saved on notepad due to my hard drive crash, little tears, I know. A bit off-topic, but worth saying anyway... backups are your friends! Losing your ads because your hard drive died may be annoying, but losing truly irreplaceable things like photos would be far worse. It's definitely worth buying an external hard drive to back up everything you consider valuable. Better yet, buy two, and back up to both, and keep the second one at a different location so you don't lose everything if your house catches fire and burns to the ground...
