    Hmmm.... This is something to think about.
    When someone goes to add a listing, all the form fields are available and it is not until the bottom of the form that the person would be told that many of them don't apply if they are going with a free listing.

    Surely the selector for type of listing should be at the top and the only fields visible should relate to the type of listing selected?

    Usability! Logic?

    But looking at it the other way round, it might encourage some people to pay for a premium listing having gone to the trouble of filling in the form...

    Over the years i've come to the conclusion that people only see and read what they want too... my form clearly stated by a premium form that this was for paid for listings and even asked them to put http:// before the www. actually in the field but did they bother nope most of them didn't... there are a set of users that no matter what you do will still ask the same old questions despite the answer staring them in the face so might as well give up now!
