We've had some requests to showcase the quality of the prints coming out of Society6. We've also been pleased to see some great reactions from a few artists who have gotten their hands on some. So here is a photo of a recent print from Jared Stumpenhorst, called 'Left Behind' http://www.society6.com/studio/stumpy...eft_Behind

And here is a recent post from artists Lloyd Winter giving his reaction to seeing some prints: http://www.society6.com/studio/winter...ra_Quality

As you know, we've made it super easy for you to make your artwork available for sale as a gallery quality Print.

We're expanding this service to include other product types.

We'd love to know what your thoughts are by helping us rank Prints, Skins (iPhone and Laptop Skins), and T-shirts in order of which you believe your fans would most appreciate being able to purchase your artwork?

Example:
I think my fans would want to purchase my artwork first as a Print, then as a T-shirt and finally as a Skin.

Let us know what you think!

Thanks.

We've had a number of people ask us what happens to their profit when they buy their own artwork. Here's the deal.

When you purchase your own artwork your profit is automatically removed from the price, as long as it is your post and you are logged in at the time of purchase. Once you add the item to your cart, you will see that the profit has been removed. Any additional questions please feel free to ask. Enjoy!

Thanks to everyone who helped us beta test the new Product Platform for Society6 and for everyone else who showed so much excitement and patience with it.

We've officially opened up the features for everyone! Now all current and future members of Society6 can sell their artwork as gallery quality prints right here on Society6 just by making a Product Post! Look for the checkbox on the right side of the post page that says "Sell this artwork as a print", then simply upload your high-res file, set your pricing and we'll handle the rest!

We will be adding new products like iPhone and Laptop skins (and more) to the mix so stay tuned. The same artwork you've made available for sale as prints will seamlessly become available as additional products when we add them shortly.

Also, once you have posted your artwork for sale as a print, not only will it show up in the main Shop, the Charts and more, but you will also have a Store within your Studio. Look for the orange Store button on the right side in your Studio. You can use this to point friends and fans directly to all the artwork you have for sale as prints on Society6. here's an example link: http://c86.society6.com/store

For those of you looking to throw something new on your walls, head on over to the Shop and check it out. We recently dropped our international shipping rates in half since the beta.

Stay tuned for more updates. Thanks again!

I wanted to post a thank you to our friends who have been offering monthly grants here on Society6. So far this includes Vimeo, Pikaland, Cafe Royal, Plwerk and YouWorkForThem. For those of you who have given a grant and did not know you could do it again, please feel free!

If any of you applied a grant in any of these serialized grants don't hesitate to apply again if you were not selected before.
