Backprint is a lab that allows you to create a website that attaches directly to your website and integrates seemlessly with it. If you go to my website and then click on "order prints" you can see how it works on my website.

It is actually meant to be more of an event pics printing solutions sort of thing, but I have seen their work and they are good. They have an excellent customer service policy- if the customer doesn't like it, they can return it for a full refund. They take credit cards (pretty much all of them). They let you have your own store front that isn't all plastered with their logo. They allow the customer online proofing, the ability to order the prints in color, sepia or b&w,  and the ability to buy right there online, just like Pictage. However, they don't charge as much as Pictage per print, and they also don't charge you. They take a percentage of what you earn and they take a base price of each print. It is fantastic. As long as I have Backprint I will never use Pictage.

Soon, I intend to put up a series of prints for sale on Backprint of these Dancers. They will be a less exclusive edition than the ones I sold at the show, so they will be more affordable. I hope soon to be doing more photographic artwork and I look forward to another gallery show this year. I also just found out yesterday that the first of a few local coffeehouses will be displaying my work. I am very excited about this. Don't get me wrong, I love galleries and all, but there is just something about having my random, stray, usually-made-for-self, extra pieces hanging on a coffeehouse wall that makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. I like the indie-ness of it all. I feel a closer sense of connection with the community around me and I know that when people there are enjoying my work, its not just because I was able to get it in a gallery.
