TUTORIAL:Using Small Product Preview
Welcome to my longest tutorial so far.
This Tutorial has a lot of information in it That makes it seem harder than it is be patient but I know you can do it.
Using small pictures of mounted prints, posters, matted prints, canvas prints, shirts or cards.
To do this you will need the Picture Number
To get this go to your “art” section and find the image you want to use right click it to get the web address(URL)
It will look similar to this
http://images-3.redbubble.net/img/art/cropped/size:xsmall/view:main/2472080-2-lavendar-rose.jpg
The number in BOLD in the example above is the picture number, use it in the below examples where it says PICTURENUMBER
NOTE: The codes used in this journal can not be copied and pasted it will not work To get the small previews to work you must right click these images to get the Web address or URL (see how below), Or once you create your small previews you can right click those.
| If using firefox simply right click the image and select “copy image location” |
![]() |
| Using Internet explorer right click the image then select “Properties” |
![]() |
| A Properties box will appear copy the Address(URL) High lighted in blue |
![]() |
| Select the text and then “right click” the Highlighted text then choose “copy” or once it is highlighted hold the “control(CTRL)” key and press “C” |
To paste the web address press “ctrl+V” or right click where you want it to go and select “paste”
I’ve also included the HTML code for using these on the web.
You can copy and paste these
Then just paste the web address you got above where is says
paste image location here and Change the PICTURENUMBER
The options can be changed at anytime.
All of the examples I provided will go to your profile page.
If you want them linked to your bubblesite you will need to know the set number
of where the images are.
To get the set numbers go to your bubblesite “gallery” and right click a set (folder)
select “properties” in the box that appears you will see the web address (URL) for the set (folder)
EXAMPLE: http://USERNAME.redbubble.com/sets/7279/works
The number in Bold above is the set number.
Below are examples of where to put the link.
Note:The USERNAME, SETNUMBER and PICTURE NUMBER needs to be changed to your information
To use on the web (linked to bubblesite)
<a href="http://USERNAME.redbubble.com/sets/SETNUMBER/works/PICTURENUMBER"><img src="paste image location here" alt="" /></a>
Here is the version for RB (linked to bubblesite)
!paste image location here!http://USERNAME.redbubble.com/sets/SETNUMBER/works/PICTURENUMBER
BONUS TIP Make a super small preview by using /pixelsize:60×60
