Re: Professional, affordable website for artists


Hi, Talentcase. $299 seems a bit high for just the software, when
people also will need to pay for hosting.

I asked the Rhizome people if it would be OK for me to respond and
mention ArtCat - htttp://www.artcat.com/

ArtCat is hosted, so the $250/year cost for artists includes web-
based site management and hosting. I also host a number of galleries
that the Rhizome crowd would be familiar with, including Foxy
Production (www.foxyproduction.com).

I'll stop here, as I'm not trying to over-commercialize the list.

What language do you want to use? If it's in Perl, I would use this:

http://search.cpan.org/~grousse/WWW-Google-Images-0.6.2/

I'm sure there are modules for Java, PHP, etc. too.

I don't have BBEDIT, but I use QTObject and SWFObject for these things.

http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/

Here are some examples of using QTObject with a still from some
client gallery sites:
