Publishing Artwork?

[Lost_Warrior]

I've been thinking about publishing some of my fractal art (they're made with Apophysis 2.0 if you're wondering). I have never tried to get something like this published before, and I don't know where to start. I don't want to go the CafePress/Zazzle route.

 

I have hundreds of fractals, and some of them are quite beautiful if I do say so myself. I'd love to be able to actually make something of them, instead of having them all sitting on disks in drawers somewhere.

 

Ideas?

Have you checked out the DeviantART site? I have a few artist friends who have their work up there. Does that count as "publishing"? There's no payment involved, and I'm not certain how/if the site copyrights work placed on it. Your work does get a lot of exposure, though. When you join the community, though, there are fellow artists there who can give you advice, I imagine.

I am a member of DA, but I don't post my stuff there. I don't really like their TOS.

 

I have a lot of my work published on my own blog (see link in my sig).

If you mean that you want to sell some of your work, this is the way you go about it. Put a price on it. Have one of your pals 'buy' it. Pay him back. Do it over and over. Keep raising your prices. Soon you will catch a turkey and get away with a real sale. Don't forget my share.
