Changes and Upgrades

Some changes that add to the ease of working with your images are fantastic and include:

  • the ability to copy and or move images between galleries instead of having to upload twice and type the description twice
  • re-crop a thumbnail right inside the manage gallery which is especially great for portraits whose head has been cut off.

The interface – dashboard has been updated with a left column navigation that collapses if you want to enlarge your editor area.

New Flash Video Tutorials

I have been working to remake my tutorials so that they appear in the new applications format.

The Flash video’s appear online along with some step by step written instructions. You can also download the Windows Media full screen version. If you don’t already have the Windows Media Player there are the links on my site to the free download.

New Studio Visit

The new Studio Visit site hosts websites that contain all of Artbiz’s templates so that you can decide which template suits your work the best. The content will always stay intact no matter which template you chose.

With a Studio Visit site you will have access to all of Artbiz’s templates within your website so you do not have to commit to one template and you will have the freedom to try something new. With the click of a button you can change the look of your site without disrupting your content.

Have a look and please change the look using the theme changer at the footer of the page. To view the sites with all the pages and sample galleries set up please visit http://studiovisit.org

A StudioVisit site is only $20 month with a nominal set up fee. To see all that a Studio Visit site has to offer please see my Fees page at http://artbizwebdesign.com/fees/

Other new things on the Artbiz site:

  • preview all templates in the left side column or at StudioVisit.org
  • preview with sample content set up at www.artbizwebdesign.com/testsite/ (also has the theme changer)
  • StudioVisit.org site has been developed in more depth that includes a theme changer and some important help links
  • to access the Demo Site please email me for a user name and password which will be valid for 7 days.
  • any emails that come in requesting demo site access are confidential,  even I won’t use them except to send you your log in credentials.
