A New Look   In the middle of this global disruption, people are embracing creativity - Artists, Galleries and Universities have been moving quickly to engage with a wider global audience, available virtually. Exhibbit is expanding its capabilities. We have adjusted our User Interface, which now provides an even more streamlined and intuitive visitor path. These new changes aim to invite viewers to have an immediate engagement with the art, with minimal pop-ups and cleaner icon placement. To see these updates in your own gallery window, re-publish your current exhibitions now. To help cater to our growing number of subscribers, we have added four new languages. You can now use Arabic, Korean, Thai and Hebrew in the gallery editorial text and the artwork information. Our recently updated User Interface also includes access to newly added features. Find out below how to utilise them for your own galleries. Republish your Exhibition     Minimalist Interface Our interface for the gallery window now has a more minimal design, with a clean and functional approach. We have moved the full-screen button within the gallery window to the bottom right-hand corner. Artwork information can still be found in the top right hand corner, but with a new design. How to Move When you enter an exhibition, the first prompt you see will be an instruction panel, detailing how to move through the gallery space. This panel can also be accessed at any time from the Menu on the left-hand side of the gallery window. Menu Updates After closing the 'How to Move' panel, the Menu Bar icons will stay present until the viewer makes their next click, which will then hide all menu labels.      The Catalogue Our catalogue now resides slightly lower in the exhibition window. The bar has been made shorter, to ensure the gallery window is kept as clean as possible, yet functional. This bar can be toggled on and off by clicking the catalogue icon to its left.        Newly Added Features Past Exhibitions  The back arrow on our menu allows access to past exhibitions that you have made in your currently subscribed galleries. When a viewer selects PAST EXHIBITIONS, it will present them with a directory page of your galleries exhibitions. Once selected, the exhibition chosen will begin to load within the same gallery window. To purchase this feature, please send a request to info@exhibbit.com. You are able to add up to five past exhibitions to each of your galleries for 50% of their subscription price. Current Exhibitions  If you are subscribed to multiple galleries, we have now included the option to showcase their current exhibitions within one gallery window. The plus icon on the menu will give viewers access to all of your currently published exhibitions. This feature is your own private directory within the Exhibbit gallery window. It streamlines the flow between individual galleries, and is especially useful if you have one exhibition divided between two or more galleries. To enable the CURRENT EXHIBITIONS feature in your gallery window, select the pencil edit icon beside each of your subscribed galleries. Once there, select to enable MULTI-GALLERY ACCESS for both Desktop and Mobile viewers.        Updated Mobile Flow We have resolved a software issue in which some visitors using our Mobile App were taken to the wrong exhibition. This flow is now corrected, and will not occur again. Our apologies for any inconvenience this has caused you and your viewers. Once you have installed the Exhibbit App, it will now re-open with the last exhibition you visited. Thank you for being here... Over the past three months, our diverse range of clients have taught us a great deal. From Universities and Schools, to Museums, Non-Profit Organisations and Galleries, we have gained many new perspectives and received fantastic feedback that will be utilised to improve our product. It has been wonderful to create and build an online venue that others find great value in. One which is accessible to many, even under such uncertain circumstances. We are continuing to work away on new updates to improve Exhibbit. In the meantime, if you have any feedback or questions for our team, please contact us at info@exhibbit.com.
