Galleries and print storefront

Not every piece belongs in a comic. Galleries are art portfolios on your public studio page, and any image in one can double as a print for sale. Here's how to build a gallery and open a little print shop inside it.

1Build a gallery

In Studio, then Galleries, choose New gallery: give it a title, a genre, and a visibility (public, subscribers-only, or private). Drag in your images (the full-resolution source is kept), reorder them, and pick any one as the cover. Drag whole galleries to set the order they appear on your public page. Readers see them in a clean masonry layout, never cropped.

The New gallery dialog: title, description, genre, Visibility and status.

A gallery is studio-scoped and has no approval workflow, it's your portfolio, so you're free to arrange it however you like.
Pro note
Make a 'subscribers-only' gallery of process art and WIPs. It's a nice perk that costs you nothing extra.

2Turn art into prints

Flip a per-image for sale toggle to open a tiny print shop. Pick the sizes (4x6, 5x7, 8x10), set a base price (the 5x7 is the anchor; other sizes scale, and you can override any), and choose paper stocks (Standard, Premium Lustre, Fine Art Matte). Sellable prints also surface in the platform's Prints and Art browse rail, so new buyers can find them.

Pro note
Fine Art Matte on a splash page feels special. Offer it as the premium option and let collectors treat themselves.

3How readers buy

A visitor taps any image for a full-screen lightbox with the details and, if it's for sale, a Buy print panel: size, paper, quantity, address, pay. FoundryInk prints and ships it. Subscriber-only galleries show a teaser until the viewer subscribes, so your best work can also be a reason to join.

Your cover art is already done. Marking it for sale is a two-second way to earn from work you've finished.

Quick questions

A gallery is a studio-scoped portfolio with fixed print sizes and no approval step. An art asset is project-owned, large-format, and goes through the print approval workflow. Galleries are the quick, casual way to show and sell.

Sizes 4x6, 5x7, and 8x10 (the 5x7 anchors your price; others scale and can be overridden), on Standard, Premium Lustre, or Fine Art Matte paper.

Yes. Set a gallery to subscribers-only and non-subscribers see a teaser until they join, a nice reason to subscribe.

On your studio's Galleries tab, and sellable prints also appear in the platform's Prints and Art browse rail for new buyers to discover.
