FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FOR OUR ARTISTS):

Our dear artist,

Welcome to Artzula. Thank you for choosing to share your work with our users through Artzula. We would like to inform you about some issues you should pay attention to while uploading and after uploading your works.

First you need to create a profile to upload your work. You can create your Artzula profile with a valid e-mail address by clicking on the "Artzula Artist Login" tab in the upper right corner of our home page. This process is free and will always remain so.

How does Artzula work?

Artzula is a free artist platform open to all artists working in visual arts. By uploading your works, you can open a store, offer printed products to our users and earn profit from each product sale. All you have to do is upload your work and track your sales.

How do I become an Artzula artist?

You can create your Artzula profile, upload as many designs as you want, meeting the criteria below, to the site and start earning from sales. Since you retain the copyright of your designs in accordance with the terms of use, no additional agreement and/or condition is required.

What are the design criteria to be loaded into Artzula?

Artzula "Design Yourself" model is not a platform that allows one-time uploads, and every uploaded design may not be available on the site, even if it is new and/or belongs to an artist who has uploaded a design before. Artzula reserves the right to disapprove one/many uploaded designs and not include them throughout the site, in line with the following criteria. Of course, it is not our job to interpret anyone's art, but in order to maintain a certain level of visual quality on Artzula.com, the criteria sought in the designs to be uploaded, apart from the original work of the artist, are as follows:

One-off personal print images, infringing copyright, belonging to someone else, taken from vector graphics sites, owned by someone else but manipulated, low resolution / blurred / pixelated / transferred to digital media in low quality by either photographing or scanning, political message / figure / party logo and related images, containing licensed logos and images belonging to a certain brand and brand, logos and images of institutions, organizations, businesses etc. even if they belong to the uploader, photographs and/or images belonging to certain persons and persons, all kinds of religious and/or belief Images that contain offensive visuals, text, people, etc. and that, at our discretion, do not comply with the general concept of the site are not approved in any way and are not included on the site.

All uploaded images are checked by our team of Artzula artists before being placed on the site and must go through the approval process. In addition, our team of Artzula artists reserves the right to periodically eliminate pre-loaded designs in line with the above-mentioned criteria in order to keep the general concept of the site at a certain level for both our artists and our users.

What should I pay attention to when uploading images?

The first thing you should pay attention to when uploading a design to Artzula is the high resolution of the image to be uploaded. High resolution does not equal large file size. It is very important that the transfer method and quality are high in studies that are later transferred to digital. For example, if you are going to take a photo of a painting you have made and transfer it to digital format, ambient light, photo quality and frame limitation during shooting are very important for the best transfer of your work and print quality. Artzula does not make any changes or corrections to your works.

For decorative products (artprints and canvas paintings), you must upload an image with high resolution and image mode RGB/8bit. For textile products, the images to be uploaded must have a transparent PNG extension with a transparent background and the image mode must be RGB/8bit.

Images with certain boundaries do not look the same in textile products as they do in decorative products and are not preferred. The quality of the image you upload is automatically detected by the upload module and the most suitable size options are offered to you during upload. While uploading your designs, you will be able to foresee how they will look on both textile and decorative products, and you will also be able to follow them on the page during uploading.

When naming your designs, it will be beneficial to choose names that can be easily found in the search engine and not to use signs in the design name.

Can I start selling immediately after uploading my designs?

Once the designs you have uploaded are approved, they will begin to appear in your store and the printed products you selected for the relevant design will be available for sale during uploading.

What products can my designs be printed on?

The designs uploaded to Artzula are currently offered to our users in 4 different products: t-shirts, canvas paintings, artprints and framed canvas paintings. You can put any product on sale or remove it from sale on the product upload page. There is no obligation to open every design you upload to every product. This process can also be done by the Artzula team at intervals in order to keep the general appearance of the site at a certain level. During this process, your design will never be removed/deleted from the site, only some of your products belonging to the design may be closed for sale.

How much do I earn from my sales?

During the design upload, you can choose the commission rate you find appropriate from 10%-15% and 20% commission rates on the product price and change it at any time. The prices that vary for the same products from different artists on the site are related to these ratio choices. Your earnings are calculated based on the VAT-free price of the product. You can also track your earnings from your artist panel.

How can I get my earnings?

You can receive your payments accumulated in your Artzula account via money transfer/EFT. You can request your accumulated payments of 250 TL or more by sending an e-mail to info@artzula.com with your valid bank (IBAN number / Account holder name-surname) information.
