[@NCWildHeART]

Thank you so much. I’ve been sitting on all these tools for 4 months, overwhelmed. I am still almost to the brink of hiring out next year. I’m not too proud to admit even though I’m a great painter I’m not great at all this tech stuff. I took a deep breath started following this video this morning and the future now looks less scary and more doable than ever before. Thank you!

[@jazminrye]

I’ve been so curious about how artists set up their art websites. Great video idea and tutorial. Thank you!

This is the most simplest & easiest SquareSpace tutorial I've ever seen for artists. Thank you!

[@pjmiller8632]

Thanks for this helpful info. I’m located in Canada. A concern from a fellow Canadian artist was that shipping was a nightmare on SquareSpace for non U.S. artists. I plan to look into that further before deciding upon platforms. Thanks again!

[@avarose833]

Omg thank you so much for making this video. You legend.

[@mariaboschmanart2205]

How do you know what price to give your artwork? And how does it work with tax since it’s like your own business and everything and how do you get a copyright and stuff? I literally don’t know how any of that works and I’m 19 years old... 🙈 I’ve been wanting to sell my paintings for so long but I have no idea where to even start and can’t seem to get help from anyone or they just don’t give me the answers I need... please tell me I’m not the only one struggling with this

@@mariaboschmanart2205 I opened my Etsy Shop and Patreon this week, but I'm selling only Digital Downloads and YES, I think for prints, You gotta print them yourself? Or..... I don't know !!!!!!! I am sincerely confused !!!!!

[@mariaboschmanart2205]

RainyGreenTrabant I’m assuming you print them yourself and you have to get a shipping label to ship the product to the customer other than that I don’t know I wish I could help...

[@cristian.ilie.018]

@@mariaboschmanart2205 YEs, you Print them and go to your post office and ship them and when you charge your client, you charge them for shipping too, the lowest shipping cost is 5 dollars and for places OUTSIDE of US it takes from 2 weeks to One Month to get there but IT WOrKS and it's safe ! :) I've tried before with the three clients I had these past 5 years !!!!

Truly inspiring! I have a question... anyone feel free to comment 😊 how do you manage your time between work, socialising, having your own time, study, uni work and having an small online business? It's been a constant desire and drive to start my own business but just thinking about it makes my mind draw a complete blank of how and where to start and how to balance and manage my time☹ if anyone can provide me some tips, advice or experience that would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! Hope you are having a cheery day😊💖

[@clarestokolosa]

Do you have a video that shows how to show the full image of a painting in the shop as my paintings are not square and they are cropped. How can I show the full image?

[@SupernovaSites]

I don't have access to the Squarespace templates as you show at 3:36 and 6:35. Also no 'store' option at 6:30. Wondering why that is the case.

[@mariec5716]

It's a con so she earns commissions.

I’m wanting to sell canvas paintings how do you think I could upload photos of them just by taking a picture of them, for you’re art you’re able to copy it exactly and just upload it , what do you think I should do for the canvas though x

Does Squarespace link to a drop shipper who makes and sends your products?

[@Victoriacgx]

Yes printful and art of where

[@distortedaydream]

do you have any tips on how to photograph work

Im curious- do you have a service who prints your orders, do you do it yourself? How much can you farm out or do you direct it all back to you?

can you make a mailing list on squarespace ?

What makes Squarespace more suited for artists over Wordpress?

[@TJ-cg8mq]

..nice pic of you and your studio assistant :) We're nearing the end of 2020 - do you still rate Squarepace now as a website/shop platform??!

[@ImThatGuyThatDoesStuff]

Have you had any issues with the order page cropping your image? It crops all of my and they have to be 20 mbs or below. If I'm selling a panoramic physical image, my customers won't be able to see the entire photo before they buy it.

[@demilli1737]

Thanks so much for creating this D! I've been really struggling to create categories for my shops, like prints and originals being two different buttons on the homepage. How were you able to achieve this?

[@Our.bamboo]

4 years later, do you still sell through squarespace?

[@noahdixonn]

Is Squarespace free? And do you still post art on there?

[@jasminelee3515]

Would this be beneficial for a business that is mostly custom order and print on demand? I sell resin Keychains and coaster sets, and custom tshirts and denim jackets. I have pictures of some of the things I’ve done already but I don’t have pictures of every possible thing that I offer.

[@ichiroyamada5080]

So you use a website to creating your own website right?

[@carmenh6824]

Hello Happy D, is it possible to let customers pay with their visa cards? and is it possible to get the image of your homepage to zoom out out ones somebody comes on your website? And my last question: is it possible in squarespace to see another picture as soon as you hover over a particular picture? Thanks! Kg, Carry

[@mischum2915]

Pretty artworks

[@kevinrichardson872]

Thank you!

[@poetansperry]

Squarespace has gone from 7.0 to 7.1 and will not let you choose a specific template, but allows all templates to be tweeked. It's making it harder to move around and try different web pages before commiting.

[@xokhaliah]

does anyone know where to find a good place to generate mockups for products? like if you sell a canvas print it will generate each print on a picture of a canvas print on a wall, like how redbubble displays products. some of us dont have professional photography for the products lmao
