crissy_sherman Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 <p>Hello friends!<br> I am in the process of creating a website that is hosted by yahoo with the intention of selling my photographs. I have recently come across the site fineartamerica.com and am considering paying their $30 fee for professional services. I realize that with this fee I will get an "artistwebsites.com" site, but I still want to use my site hosted by yahoo (I've already paid for a year and put a lot of work into it). I first considered just getting a paypal account to put on this site, but then I am still left with the task of getting prints, shipping and possibly mounting & framing.<br> The way I understand the pro service through fineartamerica.com, is that I could link each image in my gallery to their site where the customer can then choose size, frame, mat, stretched canvas, ect. and then they do the rest. I am wondering if anyone here has used them and if I am understanding this correctly. Also, what was your experience with the quality of prints they provide? <br> One more question, does anyone happen to know if I will need a sales tax license (I'm in Michigan) before I sell prints this way? And if I am required to pay sales tax, would it be only on my mark-up or the entire purchase price the customer is paying (which would include their price for the frame, ect)?<br> Thanks so much for any input anyone has for me. Any comments or suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!<br> Crissy</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
