Hi all, sometimes I see little icons placed in the headinds of an item, does anyone know how to do this?
Any help is appreciated.

I have little to say except that 🔍 for the titles of 📚 can be difficult if they're 🎎 and contain a ㊙. Of course, reading while on a 🚂 or ⛵, or tanning oneself on a 🏖 (bad idea - 🌡,☀,🔥, 🤒,🚑, 🏥,🛌, 😷) does serve to beguile the time ⏳,
If you want to sell for good amounts of 💵 💰 💳, you need to be easy for the 👁 to see.
Avoid a ⛲🌊 of symbols. Be 🦉 and ♯ with words, take good photos with your 📸, ⮉ the necessary details, and wait for the eager buyers to come armed with 🛍, tossing longed-for items into their 🛒, and 🤝 on the deal.

We didn't know about this one - we (like many stamp sellers) use the symbol ½ in some of our titles as the denomination of the stamp could be, for example, 1½d. Surely that shouldn't be a problem!
If I was selling pre-decimals, I would certainly do it your way, which is the only sensible way (I mean, how do you fit "threepence halfpenny" in a title?), and keep doing it until I was pulled up; and then I'd complain long and loud.
Exactly!
Even 3 1/2d uses more characters than 3½d, and we often need every one we're allowed!
