This may sound stupid, but I don't see how I can get my description to appear in paragraphs. I've seen it done in some stores, but many don't have it as well. My long item description looks too messy and who knows, might make me lose some sales. Please, if it's possible can someone tell me how?! Mad

Try with HTML tags, like <p> or <br>.

We don't officially support using images in the description. You might be able to 'hack' it with HTML, but it may get filtered out in the future. Better stick to the way default images work!

He was asking about Paragraphing, not images... by default your description will be mashed together into one big messy lump, no matter how you type it.
I hadn't thought of trying html pagebreaks - Thanks, Stannum!

I insert a couple of <br> into my descriptions to separate paragraphs, seems to work - be careful though, when you go to edit a description you might need to put them all back in due to the way the text is filtered.

I find it best to just use straight-up HTML paragraph tags:
<p>
One paragraph here.
</p>
<p>
Another paragraph here.
</p>

This always seems to work.
