When one creates a whole picture from the little bits, the scene begins to look quite ugly.

you can’t print it next to the PowerSeller logo without totally retouching the colours to make them match
Tell me about it – horrible, horrible mismatch on business cards.

It’s time eBay introduced a more flexible training accreditation, focusing on an educators ability to teach and current eBay knowledge rather than enforce a regime with outdated material.
Be interesting to see how this one pans out, with e.g. no Live this year and no Unis. My money would be on something much more official and difficult to get being introduced, and frankly about time too.

The most annoying part of the program is that the logo has the wrong eBay colours – you can’t print it next to the PowerSeller logo without totally retouching the colours to make them match!

The Power U material is totally useless more so for the UK. And, as you say, the test is not hard either.

But as for using the logo and the consultancy work, I’m not a happy bunny if this happens over here!

Grrrr!
