eBay has perpetrated a major design botch with their update of the My eBay page. Formerly you could track auctions fairly easily but now there are multiple problems: (1) ended items are automatically moved to separate Won or Lost columns, so that following auctions is now a jumping game; (2) the numerous tiny image files make downloading take about twice as long; (3) the larger font and double-spacing makes the page take up a ridiculous amount of space.
