Hi James,
Welcome to GCU. Let us know if you have any questions. Based on your first card and storefront a couple of quick tips:

1. We have two categories that you might keep in mind and use often:
Collections >> Photography
Collections >> Places & Cities (w/ lots of sub-cities)

These would be good secondary categories for you to use. Best case is to use your first category for the occasion or holiday that the card speaks to. We really stress creating cards with a purpose.

2. We've got ways you can really elaborate and leverage your photos, Keywords and Artist's Notes. Get specific, use keywords that describe the image to help shoppers find exactly what they're searching for. Describe the color, location, emotion, etc. The Artist's Notes you can use to further describe your inspiration, exact location, maybe what kind of camera you used, etc.

Enjoy!

I tried to click on the link for your store and was directed to the "community" page where card categories, gcu favorites, etc. are listed. I'm pretty sure it is supposed to link me directly with your store. Maybe Wendy or Shaun can help with that? gina
