Change in booth banner.

My booth banner was changed from a very attractive one gifted to me by “Euro” Johanna some years ago to one showing rings.

Who and why??? I sell no rings, just coins!!!

Comon Bonanza; I want my old banner back.

Hi reksplace36,
Thanks for asking about the booth banners. We did a sitewide update on banners, if you were affected by this change you should have received an email explaining the change. I’ve copied it [URL removed]

At Bonanza, we are always looking for ways to improve the site for our sellers. Not only do we aim to enhance the functionality of the site, we also like to make visual updates that are appealing to buyers and sellers alike.

One way we are doing this is by updating our booth banner gallery. We have some new, beautiful item images that align well with our item category system. We think that these changes will be a visually captivating and worthwhile improvement.

What does this mean for you?

Your current booth banner will no longer be available to use. Instead, we will replace that banner with a new banner that is based on your most prevalent item category. This change will be happening in the next few days. If you aren’t happy with the new banner we’ve selected for you, you can select a different banner from our new booth banner gallery, or upload your own banner image. To do this, simply visit your Booth Settings and select the second tab from the left, “Booth Appearance.”

Still have questions? Feel free to contact our support team with any concerns you have. They can be reached at support@bonanza.com.

Thanks,

The Bonanza Team

Dear BS, NOT a good idea. . .Why? People like to choose their OWN Booth Header/Banner, infringement upon such is not only unnecessary, it will not be viewed as a ‘’Good Thing’’ for Bonanza to do to it’s Sellers, JMHO, Thanks for letting us know, however. Blessings! Dee

I think this is sucks, to say it polite.
Hand made, especially picked banners are our “Brand” …
WHY the heck changing it. And then to something that is not relevant to what is offered in the booth.

Sounds like socialism.

Same here. Mine changed to zippers. No relevance whatsoever.

I had the same issue a number of times. I had to reload my banners from my files. Odd thing, it never changed in my main booth, only this (and this one I hadn’t saved so I had to make a new one) and my kitchen booth. Then once I loaded I had to keep loading and saving until it “took”.

I have the same issue. Bonanza changed one of my booth banner even though they gave me custom banner badge. Useless. Why do they do that?

Kinda like a unauthorized painter repainting your building before you get to work in the morning. Then just telling you, you should be happy because they think it looks better than what you had. PUT it BACK PLEASE. If I want it changed I will change it. And I am the one PAYING the Bill…… :(

I dont know what they are doing this for. I have heard others complaining. One seller i know had to shut down her one booth because they kept changing her banner.

Hi reksplace36,
If you look further through the community help you will find you were not the only one with a banner change. There were other booths which received banners they did not want. The booth owner contacted support to resolve the issue. Please contact support. A support team member will follow up with you within 24 hours.
Hope this helps.

I have same problem uploading my old banner, they changed it to Leaves? I sell dolls. I cant seem to get my own banner back and contacted customer support telling me to upload one from their gallery, dont want that.

Rek!!! Check YOUR B-Mail! :)

P.S. by the way, EVERY time I change my banner, with ANOTHER Banner I put together, I have to DO SO more than once under ‘’Booth appearance’‘(tab under Booth Settings – TOP, Left side of any page under Selling)
. . .sometimes I have to UPLOAD my newest banner 3 – 4 x, but usually, it NEVER takes the first time and I have to do so TWICE. I guess it’s a glitch, and since I change my banner often, I’m sort of used to doing so more than one time. Such is life within computers, glitches here and there!
P.S.S. By the way. . . in My Booth you’ll find FREE Banners, FREE Avatars, too, and Other Types of Graphics for Sellers to Use! Most are 960 x400, but MANY are A Lot Smaller than that, If You Prefer a Smaller Banner of One of Mine, and need it ReSized, JUST Ask me, I’ll do so for you! . . .Again. . .Be Blessed! Dee

This is outrageous – talk about micromanaging!

Mine was removed about a month and a half ago. I had it custom made, (paid for it), and they just removed it without my permission. Mine is no longer stored in my computer, so I had to choose one of theirs. The one they had just given me was crayons.

I remember creating one for you long, long, long ago. . .I have a Treasure Chest type of Banner in My Booth somewhere, come by and if you want another size I’ll do so for you! Be Blessed! Dee P.S., I don’t know if the one I made for you is the one you’re referring to, I don’t have it either…
