Question #1: I am an artist or gallery.  How do I get started on FineArtAmerica.com?

Answer:  To get started, simply open an account using our online registration form.  After you have opened an account, you will receive a login name and password which will allow you to login to your control panel and start setting up your account.  Using this control panel, you can upload your artwork, upload your events, issue press releases, and much more!  Everything is controlled by you.  In fact, all of the content that you see on FineArtAmerica.com has posted by our members using their control panels!  For more information on our artist accounts and gallery accounts, please take an artist tour or a gallery tour.

Question #2: How much does it cost to join FineArtAmerica.com?

Answer:  It's free!  If you want to use our print-on-demand feature, a $30 annual fee applies.

Question #3: I already have a website.  Can I link from my FineArtAmerica.com page to my website?

Answer:  Absolutely.  You can link to any webpage of your choosing.

Question #4: If I open an artist account or a gallery account, how many pieces of artwork can I post on this site?

Answer: When you register as an artist or gallery, you are able to post 50 pieces of artwork during your first month of membership.  After that, you are able to post an additional 10 pieces for each month of membership.

Question #5: Does FineArtAmerica.com take a commission on artwork that I post and sell via the site?

Answer:  Absolutely not.  If you elect to participate in our print-on-demand program, we add a small $5 - $10 markup to the sell price of each of your prints, but this markup is paid by the customer and does NOT affect your earnings.  If you want to sell a print for $750... then you'll earn $750 when someone purchases that print.

Question #6: How many events may I post on the site?

Answer: Artists and galleries are able to post up to 25 events / appearances at any given time.  This number is fixed at 25 in order to encourage our artists / galleries to delete old events in order to make room for new events. 

Question #7: How do I get my artwork and events included in the bi-monthly FineArtAmerica newsletter?

Answer:  Our newsletter is automatically assembled using the artwork, events, and press releases that are posted on the FineArtAmerica.com website.  When you post a new piece of artwork or issue a new press release, those posts will automatically be included in the next newsletter.  In addition, if you have an event which is going to occur within one month of the newsletter issue date, the event will be included as well.  Each registered art collector receives a newsletter which is customized to his / her location.  Collectors in Chicago, for instance, receive updates about Chicago-area events, whereas collectors in New York receive updates about events that will occur in and around New York.  This ensures that the collectors receive timely, relevant information, and it ensures that your events don't get lost amidst a long list of nationwide events.

Question #8:  How do I receive quote requests?

Answer:  When you login to your artist / gallery control panel, you will see a list of all quote requests that have been posted within the past 30 days.  Anytime a new request is posted on our site, we will send you an e-mail at your specified e-mail address.
