Brilliant. A place for digital artist to market and sell their works. Why didn’t someone think of this sooner???

Take a look.

    Oh yeah, I think it is a cool idea, don’t me wrong. The cut of the sale price didn’t bother me all that much, honestly. I was more disappointed in the apparent print sizes.

    I think it’s a start. You know that any print-on-demand system is going to take a big bite out of the profits for the artist. Perhaps someday someone will be able to bypass the middle man…

    That is a cool idea, though some of their requirements are a little off imho. They take a quarter of the sale price. I guess if you sell enough prints it would work out, but their prints seem a little small. If I had prints to sell I’d rather sell them at a poster size, say 24 x 36. Printing that size costs more though. Of course the other trick is getting people to buy them. It is definitely a cool idea, and keeping an eye on. I hope that one day the internet allows all artists, writers and musicians to distribute their work, without corporate censorship, and make a living off of that work.
