I have stated several times that I wished Sedo.com would remove the underline from it’s domain listings as it hides letters! The following is gpljoq but with an underline gpljoq .

Browsing at Sedo today, I noticed they have finally removed the underline from hypertexted domain listings.

Sedo Featured Auction

This makes Reading the domain much easier and does not hide g’s making them look like o’s. P’s from looking like o’s, J’s from looking like l’s etc.

Adding a very simple line of code, simply removes the line from the hyperlinked text. The code is style="text-decoration:none" which is added right after a link. You can add "_blank" as well if you want the link to open in a new window. The following link, would show No Underline and would open in new window in your browser.

<a href="http://www.dotweekly.com" style="text-decoration:none" target = "_blank"</a>

I’m not sure if Sedo had seen or heard several of my request or not, but either way, I’m glad to see the change.

You will also notice that ReliableWork.com is still at $60 on Sedo and ends in a couple hours! Put in your bids and help me out if you can. :)

    It sure would be nice if they allowed you to put names in as upper and lower case (aka CamelCase) text instead of all lower-case. It’s also much easier to read the names, much like the way you have typed “ReliableWork.com” above.

    Pretty lame that they don’t, imho.

    It would be nice if there were another big competitor to Sedo. I don’t think they much care what their users think.

    A little competition might light a fire under them.

    @Pat,
    I agree and have spoke about that in the past as well about allowing capital letters per keyword if the user chooses. I know Sedo listens, so I hope they take that into consideration. As for the competition.. they get some from Afternic, but not much.

    That’s good news… I’m waiting for Snapnames to follow suit… =P
