1. Why are we making you fill out all of this info?
Think about it. If you were going to buy a high cost art object on the web
wouldn't you want all the information you could get your hands on.

2. Why can't I just post anything?
In order to guarantee that Gallery.com content is the best it can be,
we edit and approve all objects. By having a beautiful, high-end website, we
set the bar high so you can command the price you are looking for. We give
you a great opportunity to put your objects in a beautifully hand picked
environment along with and next to other great objects.

3. Why do I need all this research on each of these art objects?
Please take time to do the proper research on your object. The more you
share with us on these pages, the better chances you have of finding a buyer
on the web. We cannot publish your object until the forms are completed in
their entirety. Buyers of fine art and antique objects are discerning
clients who want to know what they are buying.

4. How do you determine which objects to publish?
We hand pick and publish only top quality art objects that meet the highest
standards. If you choose not to fill out the forms, we will not be able to
work with you and publish your work. Any work you post will stay in your
portfolio for 90 days and then be removed if we do not publish it.

5. Why do I need a title?
The title of your object is essential to enable buyers to easily find it. In
addition, we need to see the name of the art object to post it in the
correct category. This is what people will click on to see the details of
your posting description. Create a title of the object and enter the title
name in the ³ posting title ² field.

6. Why do I need to pick a category?
Pick one category that best describes your object - the on that you want
your art object to be seen in. This is how you are going to be found on
Gallery.com.

The age of the object is important to the value. Please give us a period and
date you think your object was made or the
 approximate year to year.

8. Why do I need to know if there is a signature?
Please let us know if your object is signed or not signed. Having this
information is very valuable to the buyer and can command top dollar for the
art object.

9. How do I establish the wholesale and retail prices?
The wholesale price is the price at which you agree to sell your object
through Gallery.com. You must estimate a realistic retail price or
the object you are posting may not get published. We make money by you
posting and giving us your bottom line price (³ wholesale ² price) on your
object and adding a nominal markup on it. We ask you to estimate a ³ retail ²
price just for our reference, however Galery.com establishes the
retail price that the buyer sees and eventually pays. The difference between
your ³ wholesale ² price and the ³ retail ² price (set by us) is the margin
Gallery.com receives. Once an item is approved for sale to the buyer,
you will receive payment of the ³ wholesale price ². This is a ³ consignment ²
agreement.

This is going to be the first thing someone will read! Give us a name, bio,

and you commanding top dollar for the art object ..

12. Why do I need to give the size?
Like most things, size is everything! Most people can't tell how big the
art object is online. By giving the measurements they can get an idea of
size. The buyer needs to see the working specks of the art object. Please be
sure to include the height, width, depth and weight of the art object. These
details will ensure the buyer understands exactly what they are purchasing.

13. Why do I need to give you a encyclopedia link?
We need to see where you got your information. What is the link and URL you
used in doing your research? This enables the buyers and our staff to
cross-check the information that you are putting into the encyclopedia form.

14. Why do I need a encyclopedia description?
We need the most interesting background or art history that you discovered
about your object. Find an encyclopedia link or URL on your object and share
it with us. You will then need to edit and write the best encyclopedia
description on the art object. You should cut, paste and post it into our
encyclopedia program. This will help you be found out there on the web, this
is more web marker D. & A. These will be meta-tag words for Google searches.

15. Why do I need to know on a map where something comes from?
We are forming a relationship with Google by using their maps which will
help all of us get higher up on their listings. Where in the world is the
object from? Give us the link so we can post it into our map program. You
should cut, paste and post it into our map program.

16. What is verbal reading?
This is the personal and emotional story of the art object. Provide us with
a small description so we can make the program read it to the viewer. No
more then two paragraphs please. This gives you the opportunity to tell your
story and talk to your art buyer at all times with owner software all within
your own words. These will be meta-tag words for Google searches.

17. Why do I need some experts?
We need three experts so we can post it into our Experts program. Please
provide the name and either email address or website address of up to three
experts or someone who can say something about the art. These should be
people who know about the art object so the buyer can feel more confident
with their purchasing decision. This works like as if you where going to be
employed or hired by someone. They would ask you for three people who they
could call to verify the information you have provided. This will make the
buyer more confident about purchasing your art object on the web.

18. Why do I need Shipping costs and insurance info?
Give us the estimated shipping cost, and the art insurance company you want
to work with. If you do not have one, Gallery.com can suggest several
options for you when you sell your art object.

19. What kind of photographs do you require?
In order to best showcase your object, you will need a minimum of three very
good photos. You need to reduce the size of all photos so the loading moves
quickly. Show the art object in different angles so the buyer can see the
details of your object and make a good buying assessment of its quality. One
photo will not do it, buyers want to see what they are buying. We want to
encourage you to provide a photo on a seamless background like a museum
photo to command the highest price.

When posting /uploading art photography to our website, the image should be
high quality, but note that the larger the image size, the longer the upload
will take. Images should be no larger than 3 MB. For optimal presentation,
the photos should be 6 x 8 inches (approx. 800w x 600h pixels) and saved at
96 dpi. Locate and upload up to 6 photos of the art object. Number and name
each photo in the order you want them to appear. Click the first "Browse"
button, then search through your computer's directory to locate your first
image file. This will automatically load the file, and the "X" for that
first entry will change to an "O", depending on your browser. Repeat this
step for the second, third, and fourth images, if necessary. Click
"continue" at the bottom of the page when you're finished. You will be able
to see your art object, with the images included, on the review screen
within your portfolio before the art work is posted and published.

20. Why do I need big cropped photos?
We want nice big cropped 6 x 8 inch photo ¹ s so the buyer can see them
clearly. Think of cropping as the act of cutting away unnecessary or
unwanted portions of an image to help focus the viewers attention and help
tell a story. Take some off the top and a little off the sides to get a
close view of your object. Knowing at what point in the digital workflow to
crop a photo can have a significant impact on your pictures. Cropping is now
done easily on the computer monitor. Cropping removes extraneous information
from a photo and emphasizes what matters. It's an important tool in digital
photography. Find the photo's main area of interest and crop it to have more
impact.

Nothing is clear. What question? They buy, take on the commission?
Drive in address of the gallery in Google and see where it is located in San Francisco. Ask them to picture the pediment of the building. Life is from downtown to Van Ness.
While they were you dropped their standard forms and then do not bother with.

[kozhinart]

Gallery invites you to lay out work on site with a detailed description as set forth vyshe.S sale takes commission.
Must fill in all items. I had pritsident when, during the transaction needed an expert. In order to substantiate the quality of products and price. 3 experts are requested to indicate immediately when you make work, plus the insurance company. My question to those who had a similar experience of cooperation, how the scheme? What are the pitfalls. What disturbs that request them from their experts. At the gallery in America should be his. There, another market.
