  Looking for a ‘check list’ or ‘running sheet’ for your next exhibition? Thanks to the power of google.com, and a spare hour on a Saturday afternoon of sporadic rain, I found a few PDF’s that should help you: Events Management Check List ... I really like this one! It’s comprehensive, has tick-boxes, and could easily be modified to suit any type of event. Running, Promoting and Organsing your Event / ... Page 1 to 17 have great information on setting up and ensuring your t’s are crossed and i’s are dotted. Page 18 to 20 are the pages you want to print! Club/Association Management Program / ... This is a most extensive booklet (36 pages) outlining EVERYTHING about exhibition running. Whilst it is aimed at sport clubs, the information is easily transferable to anyone’s exhibition. Page 19 says … / ” It is essential that an event has an evaluation process that is more than simply monitoring the planning and implementation. Evaluation should be carried out through the life of the event as well as at the end. Information recorded from monitoring provides a record and can be kept as a historical record for events that are held regularly. Criteria for success, and methods for measuring those criteria, need to be set when the event is first planned. Measures depend on the important questions to be answered. Questions may have to do with attendances, quality of staff, revenue, public opinion and press coverage. Methods for obtaining the information needed to answer the questions might include statistics for attendance, questionnaires from participants and spectators, and financial records. “ Survival Guide to Event Management / ... Another long-winded yet comprehensive (56 page) PDF that has a lot of useful information. Visit these pages for the details you really want: 9, 16, 24, 27, 32, 36-37. But you MUST read every other page in conjunction to get an overall and complete view of how to run your exhibition properly and successfully! Submission form for Major Events / Activities in Adelaide / ... Maybe your exhibition is SOOOO BIG that you need to fill this in. Event Guidelines / ... This could easily have been ripped off from any one of the suggested PDF’s above, but it still has some interesting information. You’ll want pages 21 to 24.

• Red Bubble Tip #1: Adding a Portfolio Banner to Your Red Bubble Profile Page

  I am not sure if someone else has already posted a tutorial on this, so I thought I would have a go at it. I read this very insightful tutorial by admin Xavier Shay about posting a Portfolio into an email signature. I was toying around with the code, and discovered how to place the code on your Red Bubble profile page. I have noticed that some people have already figured out how to do this, so there are some who probably already know about this. I, however, did not know this until I toyed around with it and, so, I am sure that there others out there who might find this of value. I would first recommend that you read Xavier’s post and the comments that follow, as they were a very big help in learning how to do this. (1) The first step is to use the image location link that was provided in the forum tutorial: http://redbubble.com/people/username/recipe:banner;back_color:ffffff;orientation:horizontal;limit:4/username_banner.jpg (2) Next, paste this image location link somewhere in your “About Me” section between exclamation points, like this: !place the image location link here! (3) Now, notice the bold areas of the above link. You must insert your Red Bubble username (not your real name) where it says username (there are two spots in the link where you have to do this). So, my link would like like this: http://redbubble.com/people/bchrisdesigns/recipe:banner;back_color:ffffff;limit:4_;orientation:_horizontal;/bchrsidesigns_banner.jpg Can you tell where I have replaced “username” with “bchrisdesigns”? (4) Finally, if you take note of the italicized text in the image location link directly above, you will notice that the values of “back_color”, “orientation”, and “limit” are all italicized. These values are yours to control and manipulate to get the proper look and feel that you would like on your page. back_color: is the image’s background color, which you can change to any color using the standard HTML Color Code. Note, that you do not need to use the # (pound sign) that normally precedes HTML Color Code (i.e. ”#ffffff”) – you just need the code (i.e. “fffffff”). #ffffff is the color code for “white”. limit: is the number of thumbnails that will be seen in your banner. I have experimented with this in my blog and have discovered that the most you can set it to is “6”. On your Red Bubble profile page, the most you can really set it to is “4” for horizontal images and “6” for vertical images orientation: is the way your portfolio will be seen. This can be changed to either “horizontal” (from side-to-side) or “vertical” (up and down). And, that is it. Once you have decided how you want your image to look, just save your profile and presto! You’ve got a nifty banner on your page. BUT… If you would like your banner to be click-able, you need to add a link code to it, such as: ”! image location here ! ( link description here )” : hyperlink here You can copy and paste this example into your “About Me” section and then fill in the blanks with your information (make sure you delete any and all spaces). In the above example, replace the underlined text as follows: image location here: replace this text with the finalized image location link that we worked on in steps 1-4 above. link description here: replace this text with a description of what you would like people to see when they hover over your banner. (Mine says “View My Red Bubble Gallery”.) hyperlink here: replace this text with the actual hyperlink that you would like your image to link to (i.e. a specific Red Bubble section or your profile page; you can also link to your blog/website/etc.). Once you replace the text as indicated, simply save your edited profile and check out your radical awesomeness! Here is an example of mine (with hyperlink): I hope this helps everyone! Cheers! P.S. I am adding this to all of my groups in the hopes that everyone can use this tool to display their beautiful works of art (from Atmospheric Optics to Zoophoria). Much love!

• [HOW TO] RSS is here YEAH!!!!
  by Craig Shillington

  Well, some of you may have noticed that Red Bubble has introduced RSS Feeds to our JE’s and our Portfolios :) VBS WELL DONE RED BUBBLE!!! I can’t wait for feeds on comments and a feed on our Activity Monitor. For those of you unfamiliar with Feeds … You will notice when you look at someones Portfolio or JE’s now, you will see the little Feed symbol and the words subscribe to the left of it. What this means is that if you have a Feed Reader (I will mention those a little later) you can subscribe to a feed of that page and will be notified of any updates on that page at set intervals :) So now, rather than having to manually check to see if people have updated their Journal … or added new works …. you can have all the new stuff FEED right to you automatically :) Okay … my Feed Reader of Choice is called OMEA but I have a fairly fast system with 2Gig of Ram, so for me it’s not a problem to run. It’s a very big program and takes up a LOT of resources. Anyway … I thought I would try another Lighter Feed reader from a LIST of Ten. I am currently testing RSS Bandit and as far as I can tell so far it’s a great program for keeping up in RB :) I have added the Forums .. and also added Whirli to test …. all works really well :) :) Thanks Whirli ;) You can even send comments from within the program (on Journal Entries or works) so there is no need to flip back and forth from RB in your browser and the Feed Reader :) I haven’t looked at all the options in there yet, but so far it’s doing a good job of basically keeping me informed. It will take a while to add and categorize everyone … but once done .. adding new people will be easy and I will no longer need to manually check in RB for peoples updates etc :) I’ll leave this JE now …. if anyone is interested in using RSS Bandit … I can add to this to help you set it up … most other Programs would run similar so any instructions here would probably help with those too :) :) Happy RSS’ing :) :) VBS View all my HOW TO’S

• Sorting your art in your Portfolio.... Did you know that......?

  I like to move my images around in my portfolio. I sometimes will bring some of my work that I have posted months ago to the front page. This is easy to do by using the ‘Art’ tab which will display all your images in a list. One the far right hand side of the page are 4 blue arrow controls: 1st Arrow: when clicked will move that image to the very top of the list on the first page. 2nd Arrow: when clicked will move that image up one position at a time towards the top of the list. 3rd Arrow: when clicked will move that image down one position at a time towards the bottom of the list. 4th Arrow: when clicked will move that image to the very bottom of the list on the last page. Now heres the deal… when using the 2nd and 3rd arrow it is quit a slow process as the page refreshes each time to show you the new position of the image and you then have to move the cursor up or down to the new position of the arrow and click again….. / This is what I have discovered, if you carefully keep the cursor on the arrow and very quickly click the left mouse button, when you stop and the page refreshes it will have moved the image the number of times you have clicked the mouse…...

  I’m looking for nominations of what to cull out of my portfolio, I have my eye on a fair bit of my earlier work which well for me isn’t up to scratch. My difficult is I find myself to be my toughest critic so I’d like to open this up to anyone that wants to name any images they think don’t belong, I’ll compare that to my own list and then let the culling begin. I currently have 75 works for sale and I don’t know that feels like too much so I’m looking to cullt 10-25 at a guess, that said I don’t want to be like a overzealous gardener and prun it back to hard. So feel free to jump in and nominate any number of shots to go up onto the chopping block, if a image has already been nominated still list it as more votes will spell doom for the image in question.

  Okay … so Xavier has implemented an awesome random banner generator (which shows three works from our portfolios) which can be used as an email signature. Read about it in the Forum If you wanna use the code for placing a clickable link in your Email Sig file (Or on a web page somewhere that uses HTML code) use your own Promote page to get the code for your banner. If you have any problems getting the Email Sig to work … please post your questions in the Forum topic about that. Now, for the profile bit you don’t need all this code you only need one part and you don’t even need to use the Widgetinator to get it …. I am going to make it easy for you ;) First you need your Username. That is the text you type to LOG ON to RedBubble, not nessecarily your Name as shown in RedBubble to others. My Username is crackers1967. My name in here is Craig Shillington. So we can’t get those confused. The easiest way to see what your username is, is to open up RedBubble and click on View your public Profile. Look in the address bar of your browser and it will show you your username at the end of the address: http://redbubble.com/people/username To get the link to the three thumbnails randomly pulled out of you portfolio, you use the following link {just put your username in place of where I have typed username http://redbubble.com/people/username/recipe:banner/username_banner.jpg If you want to test the link, simply type (or copy and paste it) in your browser address bar and if all is working you should open up a small jpg of three of your own works. If that doesn’t work, try making the second username with Caps. Try again. Hopefully then it works. When it works, THAT is the code to put in your Profile. Okay …. now that you have the address, edit your profile and where you want to show the three random photos (in the About You box) type an exclamation mark ! , then right after that (without a space) copy that address, then put another ! again without any spaces. Save your profile then view it and see if it works :) :) To turn the banner into a clickthru link … simply add a colon {:} and the link you want it to click to; after the colon (no spaces) Then if anyone clicks the banner, they will be taken to the url you put in there. :) Good luck :) View all my HOW TO’S

  animoto is pretty sweet – they take images, mash them through some motion graphics templates and give you a flash video. Here are some of my RB images If animoto had an API I’d buy RedBubble a business account with and do this automatically for everyone’s portfolio. Some people would bitch about using their work out of context or whatever, while others would spread their art around the web.

  Hi Everyone Just like the wonderful Mel Brackstone I have put up a portfolio on Artist Wanted and I was wondering if you would be so kind as so to take a look if you have a spare minute. I am not sure if the voting is still open as in my usual rushed way I have probably missed the boat, but if it is and you so wish and you like my work, I would be more than grateful for any support. :) Of course, please take a look at Mel’s amazing portfolio too. Thanks as ever for being such a supportive community :) Thanks again Debxx ps – please don’t feel that you have to though – only if you want to :)

  The question I put to you RB is… What is your all time favourite piece of YOUR OWN work? I know myself that seeing your own shots day after day tends to ruin their appeal after a while.

  Varinia (Globalphotos) and I have started a new group called Body of Work / This group is to promote the work of one exceptional RB artist at a time – people who have a body of work – at least 12 images, works of art or pieces of writing that are consistently high quality and show an exceptional degree of creativity, technique, craft skill, thought and beauty or interest. These are the people who inspire you on RB and who you leap to add to your Watchlist when you come across them, even when their art form may be completely different to your own. / One artist will be featured each week and it is hoped that RB admins will choose from among them to feature an artist as the entire Home Page selection (ie 8 images) once per fortnight if they see fit. / Our first featured artist is the brilliant Mel Brackstone / So come and join and let a top RB artist know what you think of their body of work. Cheers Geoff

  Hi All!! Just a quick note to say that I am making my way through my huge list of favourite’s at the moment, buying your pieces of works as either cards/tees/prints. I’ve noticed some have been deleted or removed at some point or another (which I have done myself in my own portfolio previously). Is a pity, cos I hadn’t yet gotten to purchase that fave piece of yours!! So I just thought I’d say a “HANG ON A MINUTE GUYS!” before deciding that a piece of work you’ve perhaps had little or no sales from, gets deleted from your portfolio. Some of us have just taken awhile to get our butts into gear. Especially me, with low income ATM. I figure if I can spend a few bucks a fortnight buying wonderful works, then before I know it I’ll have a wonderful little collection that I slowly but surely built, all the while supporting my fellow friends/artists around me. Perhaps this is something you yourself should think about to??? It’s all about supporting one another here at RB, don’t you think??? Anyway, love to see all the new works popping up, especially from OS. Have a great day Kids!!! Bel xxx

  Would like so much to thank everyone for visiting and looking at my portfolio over the past months,as the counter has now gone over 40,000 views. / I feel very honoured that people have taken such an interest in my images. / My photography is pretty “straight” with very little photoshop adjusments as I aim to get it right in camera,however I think photoshop is great tool and would readily use it to whatever degree is required if I felt the need. / I admire so much work here on redbubble where images have been manipulated to create wonderful art,in the meanwhile I’m happy doing my own thing and thinking of the day when I might get really good at using photoshop. / Once again many thanks for all those supportive comments made on my work. / Cheers / Joe
