New Artist Websites

Definitely interested in giving it a spin!

I'm game!

Count me in please!

I'd love to try it out :-D

How will we know it's taken affect?

found it... :-)

what will be the process of using our domain? I assume we will have to set up a Cname record...

Waving a hand

Count me in. Just joined the FAA community yesterday, and now figuring out how I want to set things up (pricing, bio, galleries, etc.). Will add the Premium account today. I really like the ideas of both the responsive designs and the ability to use my own domain. Thanks.

Count me in Sean.

Wow, you've done a lot of great work! I'd love to try it out.

Neat discovery #1 - if you enable comments now, they no longer link off to another artist's site. So no longer stuck for a choice between allowing comments or having a big empty area under each image!

I was hoping to see the option to remove un-used menu items, i.e. events, etc. Maybe on a future round? I am happy at least they are buried under the info. menu so not quite so front and center.

I assume the subscribe button in the footer under "stay connected" connects to our individual mailing lists rather than the FAA one? I wish we could also populate our own Social media buttons below it like FAA has on the main site.

I don't have a spare domain lying around right now, so will have to think a bit before I get to serious changes or a new logo, etc. Plus then I have to change the links I have into my AW on other sites, so yes, for now I'll stay with the AW domain.

Me too please Sean.

Mark the ability to remove unwanted tabs (now links) is happening

Very cool, I would like to give it a try!

@Abbie - yaayyy!!

And I tested and yes, the subscribe option at the bottom is connected to our individual mailing list as I figured it was but I like to see things work. LOL

PS I can't pinpoint what's causing it, but every so often I will click one of the menu items at the bottom under "administrator options" like "edit page appearance" and instead of taking me to the page to edit it will take me to Fineartamerica.com and ask me to log in. When I try to login with my usual details, it won't let me log in there (I'm already logged in but it keeps telling me there's an error). If I hit back a few times and start over from the home page on the AW, I can click that same option under the administrator options with no problem. It's so intermittent that I can't figure out what I'm doing that's causing it. But maybe it will be apparent in the logs on FAA's side what's happening? Just thought I'd toss that out there.

Ooh! Mines working already! Thanks Sean!

Mark, could you possibly clean out your browsers cache totally? Let us know if it does it again after that?

I'd like to be a beta tester, please. :) (Oh, and if I could add to the wish list, it would be sub-galleries)

Niiiice. Thank you Sean .

Looks like I will be doing a bit of redecorating this evening.

Abbie - cleared, I'll post back it it happens again.

Count me in, Sean, and thanks.

These look outstanding ... way to go all ... if I could, I'd like to play, too!!! : ))

Me too!

I am willing to give it a try. My site has not been up that long and not much traffic yet.
Thanks
Iris

I'd like to try it, please. I won't have time to play with it today but probably some time this weekend.

Count me in.

I'd like to give it a try-thanks!

Certainly Aline,

Just go in your back office under default settings and it is the first option at the top. Just choose Galleries and click Submit!

I have not seen in the new format where I can add paintings to my webpage. I have found the EDIT button but nothing refering to add a painting. Please help. Sidney Vaughn

On the premium sites, go to the Images page when logged in
At the bottom of that page is the upload tab in the bottom menu

Hope that helps

Yes, That helps. I found it. Thanks,
Sidney

Actually the free site is easier to get around. Does this new web site come with instructions?

Hello

I am trying to change the TITLE for my website and the only way i can do that is by changing the contact information. Is there a better way to do that.

I would also like to change the TITLE of my shop now it says "art" is there a way to do this.

Appreciate any help

Thanks

Nas

I mentioned in the previous post that i like to chnage thrme TITLE within brackets the text disappeared.

When I log into my artist website, http://britt-runyon.pixels.com/index.html, in the bottom footer is "Location Settings".
It says "Live Oak, Florida".
I'm in Ojo Caliente, New Mexico.
How do I fix this?

you should be able to click it and adjust that.

Thanks many times for letting me know @Travel Pics ,is this 1 time charge or ones every year ?

@Colette - purchased domains need to be renewed annually. You can pay for multiple years at once.

@Greg ,thank you so much for letting me know

I love the new format. I used my domain name and it all came together nicely. (www.Witches-Hammer.com).

The only problem I have encountered is not finding a way to "re-arrange" the photos (change position)? It used to be possible in old FAA website.
Each photo was numbered and you could change the "position" of each numbered photo. I can't find any way to do that and desperately need to "re-arrange" listings! Please help...

Thanks, Virginia
Witches-Hammer.com, Tucson, AZ

We do that on the other site. http://pixels.com/profiles/esprit-mystique-artisan-jewelry.html

Isabella,

I read your reply above, and went to that site. Yes, it is my FAA site (Pixels), but it only has 4 of my listings on it. I was very confused when this transition came about and started to "re-list" all my 300 listings AGAIN, when I found the original site that had ALL my current listings. So, I added my new domain name (Witches-Hammer) and was very pleased with the results. It has pillows, tote bags, and T-Shirts. The only thing I can't do is "re-position" the listings to make better viewing.

I don't understand the difference between Pixels site and what I am on now, Premium upgrade? Please show me how to add ALL my listings to Pixels site in ONE STEP without having to re-list each one individually? It would take weeks! Here are the links which are confusing. Which one is the main site for Pixels?

a.) http://pixels.com/profiles/esprit-mystique-artisan-jewelry.html (ability to "re-position listings, but the majority of my "Witches Hammer" listings are missing!)

b.) http://esprit-mystique-artisan-jewelry.pixels.com/controlpanel/index.html?tab= (can't edit here)

c.) http://www.Witches-Hammer.com (the FAA website with ALL my listings, but I can't re-position anything)

Thanks for helping me get this straight in my head! Virginia

Could you possibly have TWO accounts?

You have to move them about on this side

If you are having to relist things then you are on two accounts

I'm confused. The only thing I changed, was to "point" my FAA site (Esprit-Mystique) to my new domain (Witches-Hammer). Since all my listings were included, I thought it had been processed correctly. I changed the Header from Esprit Mystique to Witches Hammer. I don't need (or want) two separate accounts. I just want ONE account where I can upload new listings and edit them, including "re-positioning" the order of listings.

I think something has fallen between the cracks. Can you check my account (s?) and see which one has all my listings under "Witches-Hammer" and is editable? I don't need the "Esprit-Mystique-Artisan-Jewelry" anymore, since I (thought) changed it to my new domain name. Does this make any sense? Or, am I more confusing with this explanation? LOL!

http://pixels.com/profiles/esprit-mystique-artisan-jewelry.html (don't need this one - just changed the name to below)
http://pixels.com/profiles/witches-hammer.html (Correct new name, same listings...but can't edit the order of listing positions)

http://pixels.com/profiles/esprit-mystique-artisan-jewelry/shop (This one says "Pixels" at the top left of the page)
http://fineartamerica.com/profiles/esprit-mystique-artisan-jewelry/shop (This one says "Fine Art America" at the top left of the page)

I want the "browser" to say "Witches-Hammer" in the browser bar, NOT "Esprit-mystique-artisan-jewelry" so the viewer won't be confused. I want to sell T-shirts, tote bags and pillows.

http://witches-hammer.com/ This is THE SITE I have been working on. It says "Artists Websites powered by Fine Art America" at the very bottom of the page. Am I working on the wrong web page???? Is this not the same as the PIXELS new site?

Thanks for taking the time to sift through all this... : )

Virginia

When deciding to add on the website which links to FAA and to Pixels, I saw this example of Scott's site which is powered by pixels.com: http://scott-listfield.pixels.com/

How is it possible to do this as all I can seem to do thus far is this feeble attempt: http://louisacatharine.com/

I have yet to upload all my art work to FAA, but for now this is what I have done. Is there any way of creating the layout that Scott has or not?

Thanks so much and excuse my ignorance about this, total newbie *grin*!

No, not just now I am afraid

No, not just now I am afraid

Isabella, thanks so much for the quick reply, good to know it's not my lack of tech skills :)

Interested in Being Beta Tester Sean and Abbie.

Please count me in too!

Approx. when can we start Using the Look at http://scott-listfield.pixels.com/ Very Impressive. Congrats!

so you know this is a year old, there are no more beta testers.
