lol, I made a request like an hour ago.

once I get my own place you bet i will buy one!

Now THIS is interesting! DeviantArt takes care of the framing and the printing for you, I assume?

It does. I browsed the ordering process and it seems like framing is optional for extra money.

Yes, I noticed this too. Additionally, one can order it as a photo print, or even on canvas! My father is a hobbyist photographer, and he has shown me the process involved in printing a photograph to canvas. In the example he showed me, the result was immaculate. It looked hand-painted.

Are you going to synergize this with your website catalog somehow?

Synergize? What? :3

I don't know what that means or what it would entail.

Looks like you can also purchase the print applied to canvas!

Oooooo.... Okay: Paper or canvas? This I'll have to give some thought about.

Very cool Fisk.

Synergy: the co-operative action of two or more of something, resulting in a better overall end result than if those two entities had worked by themselves.

At present, this print service is only available through your devianart page. I had hitherto no reason to visit deviantart, so I had no account there. Without you making this journal, I would not have been made aware of the possibility to purchase high-res prints from you. With this newfound discovery of being able to sell high res prints through deviantart, will you be tying your personal website catalog in to that somehow? Perhaps a section where one can browse available prints on your website, and then click a convenient link that will direct them to your deviantart page where they can make the purchase?

... And I fail at replying.

Oh, well, not quite yet. Maybe after the scheduled overhaul we're going to be doing sometime. But no. I may see how popular prints are before I decide what I'm going to do with future services.

Hmm, I thought DA didn't allow adult materials? How did you get past this? Or has that changed?

"We do not allow the submission of "Adult" or pornographic materials to deviantART under any circumstances. Such material will be removed immediately as it comes to our attention."

Just a heads-up in case, don't want you to get in trouble with the site.

I thought in this case it was artistic nude? I am probably wrong, but it's not distasteful... and usually they're okay with "artistic nude".

DA allows adult material, nudes and the like, with the proper flags on the submissions. It doesn't allow hardcore pieces like flat-out sex. I've been submitting to DA like this for a long time, now.

Ironic, considering the root word in the name of the site is 'deviant.'

I'm glad I'm not the only one who found this ironic.

I can understand how they would be afraid of their site devolving into a porn board. With professionals having mainstream galleries there and all.

Definitely going to be looking into this one after I get a couple of my own commissions done and get the money in Paypal!

I see you could also have it applied to Mugs, Mouse Pads, etc.

Forgot you had one of those lol!
