Gallery Types

Contribute your images to an impressive array of galleries. Available galleries include:

Global Galleries
Your images are available for everyone to review and you decide whether your image can be purchased as stock, prints, fine art, greeting cards, or motivational art. You have complete control and can offer your image as any or all of these products types. You select how your images will be sold and the prices you will charge. These galleries are great for photo sharing and are an effective way to generate print sales.

Artist's Galleries
You may create an unlimited number of photo galleries that contain only your work. You define how your images are to be sold and the prices you will charge for each image and sales method (prints, cards, etc.). This is a great way to present your photo albums to site visitors.

Private Galleries
Create private galleries that are available only to your clients. You can provide login and password protection for each private gallery so you can restrict who accesses each gallery. You decide how your images will be offered to your clients and the prices you will charge. We allow you to set individual print prices and allow you to define an unlimited number of print packages that you can selectively offer to each private photo gallery.

Watermarked Images
All public images on the site are displayed with a watermark for your protection. You can use our standard watermark, or enter your own unique watermark text to be displayed with your images.
Through our various photo album options your images can be offered in a wide ranging family of products. For each image you can select the type of products that can be purchased and the prices you wish to charge for each product type and size. You can sell your images in any of the following ways:

Stock
You can authorize an image to be sold as a stock image that others can download. You select the stock image sizes you wish to offer for each image and the price you wish to charge. And of course, if you do not want to offer an image as stock, you have that ability as well.

Prints
Any image can be offered as a photographic print. As with all of our options, you select the print sizes and prices you wish to offer to the public.

Fine Art
Any of your images can be sold as fine art. Fine art images can be produced on a variety of archival papers, including glossy stock, 100% cotton fiber, and waterproof canvas. You select the papers and print sizes, and then define the prices you wish to charge for your prints. We allow site visitors to select matting and framing options for fine art prints and we pay you a commission on any matting and framing purchased in conjunction with your prints.

Cards
You may optionally offer any image on various sizes of cards. Images are printed on the card front and customers can select the inside text and ink color to produce a customized card. You select the card sizes and prices you wish to offer for any prints you authorize to be sold as cards.

Motivational Art
As with all of our options, you can decide whether any individual image can be purchased as motivational art. And again,\ you specify the sizes and prices for any motivational art you authorize. Our motivational art allows customers to define an title and motivational text that is then printed below your image to form a motivational art piece. Some artists like to offer motivational art, some don't. As always, you decide.
Financials

What Does it Cost?

No Account Fees
We do not charge any fees for establishing or maintaining an account. We do not charge you for storage, bandwidth, or the number of images you place on our site. Having an account is 100% FREE!

Sales Costs
We do not charge you to offer your images for sale. We do, however, receive 15% of the sales price when you do make a sale. We believe this is an extremely fair model. You decide what to sell and what prices you will charge. You pay nothing if we can't sell anything for you. You pay us a 15% commission when we do.

We also deduct the cost of any materials (e.g. the cost of making your print) and your portion of any applicable credit card processing costs. These are all costs associated with your sale. No sales, no fees.

Complete Disclosure
We provide complete sales and payments histories for you to review. These account tools allow you to review each sale, your current balance, and each payment you have received from us. Nothing is hidden, nothing is glossed over. We put it all on the table for you to review and analyze whenever you wish.

We also provide numerous tools that clearly indicate the costs you will pay for any particular sale. For example, when establishing your price for a print, we indicate your sales price minus fees for our commission, print costs, and credit card processing fees (if applicable). We show you exactly how much you can expect to net from the sale. This tools prove extremely helpful when establishing prices.

Artists can offer their work on products ranging from small cards through large 40x50 waterproof canvas prints. You can establish artist galleries that showcase your work to the exclusion of all others. This is a great way to offer a collection of similar art to the visiting public.
