DRAWING AND PAINT

How to print, publish, sell your art work online for artists.

How to print, publish, sell your art work online for artists. I just found a few cool site that you guys might be interested if you want to commercialize your art work in print format.
I think you might like it.

This site has a lot of cool and edge art work, you can also put yours in for sale in print, poster.
-inprnt.com

These two sites you can publish your personal artwork in book format for either personal or commercial with good professional quality.
-blurb.com
-lulu.com

I have comparison useful review for burb.com vs lulu.com from wetcanvas forum:

1) Lulu will only saddle-stitch (staple) books under so many pages. Even my 20pp Blurb book is perfect bound. Looks much nicer. Score 1 for Blurb.
2) Blurb's covers are glossy and heavier than Lulu's, which are matte. Score 2 for Blurb.
3) Blurb's page stock is also much nicer, nicer sheen. Not quite glossy but shows colour better. Also even the white is a nicer softer white. Blurb's printing is more even while Lulu's has a shiney image and text ink against the white of the paper. Blurb's all has the same finish. Score 3 for Blurb.
4) Personally I think Blurb's colour reproduction is superior BUT there was a problem with my file I supplied to Lulu so I can't tell for certain. But the way the ink looks on the paper I think Blurb's would still be superior even if the Lulu files were colour perfect.
5) I far far prefer Blurb's own layout software. It's easy to use, pretty intuitive, simple to change page layouts on a whim, all drag and drop, PC and Mac compatible. You don't need to worry that the files you produce are the right size, format, etc as you do with Lulu. And this is coming from a graphic designer who has all the top software: Blurb's software was fun and easy to use. Score 4 for Blurb.

Now go work on some cool art so you can later make cool posters and book.
I love the internet and good idea, they make our life a lot easier. Well have fun lurking these site, and let me know if any of you actually print out some posters and books.
