Brand your Gallery

We know many of you will be anticipating this new feature, as it has been widely requested. From the 8th of September, you will be able to brand each of your galleries with your own company logo.

When you republish your next exhibition, you will have the option to replace the new Exhibbit logo (positioned just above the menu in the gallery window) with your own branding, including the ability to make it a clickable link.

Branding is an account-wide feature that applies to all of your galleries, adding $10.00 USD per month to your subscription.

How to upload your Logo

If you would like to replace our Exhibbit logo, you are able to do so under 'MY ACCOUNT'.

We have added a new tab titled 'BRANDING'. The following three images illustrate how you can upload your own logo, or choose to remove any branding completely.


When the existing logo is removed, you can choose to add your own logo or alternatively, not to show any logo. 

During the process, you will be through the payment gateway, then the branding addition will be added to your account.

PNG or JPG

The file containing your logo must be 100 pixels high and saved as a transparent png or a non-transparent jpg file at 72 PPI (pixels per inch). The area we have allowed for the logo is quite small and is best suited for s single word logo or an abbreviation.

A few more updates ...

MOVING AN EXISTING EXHIBITION
 
Moving your exhibition to another gallery of the same size is now as easy as selecting another gallery from the dropdown menu. This is useful when you have made several exhibitions in the one gallery and wish to have more than one of them online at a time.

IS THIS IMAGE APPEARING IN YOUR EXHIBITION?

When there is a dropout in your internet connection and the system cannot access your artwork, this image will appear. To remove this image, try refreshing your browser. If your artwork is still not appearing after you refresh, try clearing your browser's data and cookies. Once you have followed the instructions below, reload your exhibition from its published link:

On Desktop:
Hold down shift when you refresh your page

On Mobile:  
iOS: Settings/Safari/Clear Data

Android: Settings/Apps/Browser-name/Storage/ClearCache and data

   
CURRENCY UPDATE
 
When adding information to artworks, you will only need to choose your local currency once, as our system will remember the last one used. If you can't see your local currency please contact info@exhibbit.com.
 
 
   EDIT ARTWORK IN THE STOCKROOM

Artworks can now be edited within the stockroom. Just click on any artwork and the edit window will appear, ready for you to add further information. 

         
ANALYTICS UPDATE

We've updated our analytics feature so that views from exhibitions which are embedded in external websites are now included within the analytics. Here you can see visits from all countries. If you are yet to use our analytics feature, the analytics button sits beside of your exhibitions within the Gallery Manager. 

One more thing...

There is one more feature that we have just completed, which aims to save your time. 

It is a bulk uploader (CSV file) in which all artworks and their associated information (metadata) can be uploaded together in one file. On completion, the artworks are deposited into your stockroom ready to be selected for an exhibition.


If any of you are interested in beta testing this for us and are ready to create an exhibition this way, please email us at info@exhibbit.com.

We'll be back with another update soon and in the meantime, we hope you are all keeping safe and well.
