Ready to upload your images and image details? Then simply click on the Upload box below. If you need help with images sizes or you’re not sure what to put in your Bio, then scroll down this page for more info.

What image should I use in my Bio?

Your Bio image could be a photo of you, or simply another sample of your artwork. The choice is entirely yours. Check other Bios on the site for inspiration.

Bio Content

The easiest way to add your Bio text content is to create it in your favourite program (e.g. Microsoft Word) and then cut & paste into your Bio box here. Don’t worry about styling the text (fonts etc.) as it will take on the site generic style.

How many words am I allowed?

There is no restriction on the amount of words you use however, as a guide, an average Bio would usually consist of approximately 200 to 300 words.

Image info for your Gallery

We realise if you’re not used to working with digital images then pixel sizes and terms like dpi will mean nothing to you however, we are experienced in this side of things so will always find a solution to get your images uploaded and displayed at their best on the site.

If, for any reason, you are struggling to get your files uploaded using our facilities then please drop us a line and we will suggest a workaround. We limit the file upload sizes to 10Mb. The reason for this is that a high-quality scan can sometimes approach the 40/50Mb size (sometimes much more) so if you are uploading 20 images you can see the storage space needed would be eventually unsustainable.

Also, there’s a huge difference between the quality and size of a file needed for fine art printing purposes, compared to the requirements for displaying an image on the web. Most images, even when reduced in size (in the correct manner) to less than 1Mb will display perfectly well onscreen.

Please note: we also have ‘right-click protection’ software activated on the site, to deter unscrupulous people from stealing your images, another reason for not displaying original high quality scans on the site.

Each subscriber is able to upload up to 20 images (for best results, shortest side should be approx.2000 pixels) and 1 extra image for your Bio section. Remember, smaller images will not load full screen on many devices so will lose impact.

Please Note: Maximum single image size is 10Mb

If you don’t have the tools to resize your images then don’t worry, as we can handle that side of things for you. However, it’s worth bearing in mind that we can reduce the size of an image, but we can’t enlarge it without suffering loss of quality, so err on the large side and you can’t go wrong. We can resize them on your behalf should it prove necessary.

With each image you upload, you will need to include:

Title | Dimensions | Media | Price. (This is all optional on your part, apart from the Title which is required). If no details are included then we will just post the images without the info. If you do include a price for your artwork then please note:

ArtShowcase is not involved in any negotiations and cannot be held liable for any financial transactions between you (The Artist, Artisan or Photographer) and any potential buyer.

This is not an Art selling site, purely a platform for showcasing your best work however, a personal contact form is available on your page (it can be removed should you wish) for buyers to contact you directly. Anything you do sell is between you and the buyer only, we do not take any commission.
