Setting up your art gallery

Help - Setting up your art gallery

Setting up your gallery is easy, and if you follow this guide you should have no trouble.

Step 1: Make sure that you are logged in, then click over to the Gallery section. You should see a menu that looks like this:

Your artist control panel

Step 2: Click "Create/order my albums" You will see this screen:

Adding a new album to your art gallery

Step 3: Click "New", then type in the name of the album you want to create, for example "Photographs".

Step 4: Now, click "Upload file". Browse for your images on your computer, then click "Continue". You will see that in the list of available albums, your "Photography" album is available. Your personal galleries are shown like this:

Uploading your images

Step 5: Once you select your image, enter a description and a title. Entering keywords will help people find your images.

Keywords should be entered all lowercase with a space in between each word. Effective keywords tell something specific about the piece. For example, if you upload a photo of a horse in a large open field, appropriate keywords might be, horse animal field landscape grass mammal power strength and so on.

Selling your art

At this stage, as you're entering a description, you will see four other input boxes: "PayPal button code", "Price", "Medium", and "Actual Dimensions". Here's what they mean:

PayPal button code
In this box, paste your PayPal button code for the art you're submitting. Instructions for setting up PayPal buttons can be found here. Nothing else besides your PayPal button code should go in this box!

Price
The price of this image, in US dollars, including shipping. This should be formatted as follows: 150.00.

Medium
Oil on canvas? Photograph? Paint on a monkey? A few words on the media used to create your artwork should be put here.

Actual Dimensions
We suggest measuring your art in Imperial units - i.e. inches, feet, etc.

Detailed sales information, such as whether the piece is framed, original, a print, slightly damaged, or anything else relevant to a buyer, should be put in the Description section. Remember - the more information you can give your buyer the more they'll be likely to buy!
