Troubleshooting errors while uploading an image to the Weebly.https://www.annakoh.com/blog/how-to-draw-a-rose-for-kids If you were to ask me what I think Weebly's fatal flaw is, I would definitely say image uploading. When uploading images to Weebly, you must upload them under various names, just like on a computer. If you accidentally upload with the same name as a previous file, the recently uploaded image will be overwritten on top of the previous file. This phenomenon may not be noticeable when using Weebly for the first time. It was the same in my case. However, before you regret it, you cannot go back because a large number of posts have already been uploaded. Additionally, it is difficult to give up on Weebly because it has its own unique advantages. This is why I have to keep using Weebly. So I created my own solution to the problem. That is by using the screen capture function. Images you post on your blog do not need to be high resolution. There is no reason to print these images and use them for commercial purposes. So, it becomes easy to use the image upload function with just a simple screen capture. For screen captures, the file name changes continuously depending on the capture time, as shown above. This means that just as time cannot be turned back, new file names are always created. Therefore, a new file name is automatically assigned even if I do not create a new file name. I am using this feature to overcome my crisis as a Weebly user. I recently discovered a user who left a beautiful comment on a page whose images had been messed up due to Weebly's incorrect policy. Fortunately, only half of the page was damaged due to overwriting of image uploads, and half of the page was alive.
The lovely user left a nice comment about the remaining half page. Personally, I am frustrated about the missing half page. However, thanks to this person’s encouragement, I am gaining strength again. thank you

Printable Label format for Exhibition.Creating a printable label format for an exhibition is a crucial part of providing information about the artworks on display. Here's a basic template you can use as a starting point: [Title of Exhibition] [Date of Exhibition] [Gallery Name/Location] Artwork 1:
Repeat the above format for each artwork in your exhibition. You can adjust the font style, size, and layout to match the overall design of your exhibition. Including a QR code linked to a webpage with more detailed information about each artwork can also be a modern and interactive touch. When creating the labels, make sure to print them on high-quality, durable paper or cardstock. The labels should be easily readable from a short distance, and you may want to consider laminating them for protection against handling and potential spills. Additionally, be sure to place the labels next to or below the respective artworks to help visitors identify and learn more about each piece. The content and design of the labels will depend on your specific exhibition and artistic style. You may also want to consult with the venue or gallery where your exhibition is taking place, as they might have specific guidelines or templates for exhibition labels. Below is the template I personally use. It can be useful for exhibitions and art shows. When using A4 size paper, 4 labels can be printed on one side.
I recently launched my portfolio website using WordPress as part of my graduate school classes. This is a good opportunity to compare the Weebly and WordPress I am using. First of all, what I'm going to share from now on is not a technical report, but to tell you what aspects I paid attention to as a general user, especially as an artist, which aspects have room for improvement, and which aspects I continue to use Weebly. Weebly vs. WordPress!First of all, the below is a site I created with WordPress. If you think about the template and design, there doesn't seem to be much difference from Weebly. However, the good thing about Weebly is that I want to present my personal site as if it were a small portal site. In this respect, Weebly has the advantage of being able to freely move the display. In the case of WordPress, even if there are some design restrictions, it would be good to use it for something you want to do in a formal and simple way. In the Weebly editing window, editing elements are posted in the form of a bar on the left, as shown below. Personally, I think this seating arrangement is convenient. Just like an artist draws paint on a palette, you can use the elements you want. I think this display is more convenient than WordPress. However, the downside is the image upload feature. Weebly has a fatal drawback in that if you upload an image with the same name, the previous file will be overwritten. (In my case, I use the screen capture function as one of the countermeasures.) In the case of WordPress, image upload is simpler, faster, and error-free. However, there are many restrictions when changing the image size or location. Editing in WordPress is simple, but compared to Weebly, it feels inconvenient because it requires multiple steps. Think about your future needs. Which platform do you believe offers better scalability as your portfolio and online presence grow? Your insights into these aspects can be valuable for other artists and general users who are deciding between Weebly and WordPress for their portfolio websites. Ultimately, the choice between these platforms may depend on your specific requirements and preferences as an artist. |
