Size of GCU card images for my blog
Apr 21st, 2010, 5:34am
 
Yesterday I used my blog (blogger) to promote the work of various artists from GCU and Zazzle who paint by hand -

But I couldn't find a way to make the images from GCU as large as the ones from Zazzle, which seemed a shame. I used the 'sell this card' button but I wonder if I've missed something and there's a way to get larger images of cards from GCU artists for my blog?
 
I'm planning to repeat this monthly, on different themes, so if anyone can tell me how to make the GCU images larger, I'd really appreciate it, as would the artists whose work I'm promoting, I should think!

Hi Judy,  I know what you mean, though so far I like the small version.  Zazzle offers 3 sizes and their smallest is about the same as GCU's option.  I'm sure it would be complicated for GCU to create a means for us to be able to grab more than one size.

Thank you for your reply, Doreen.  
 
At least I now know that I wasn't just missing something that everyone else knew about!  Wink
 
I do think it's a shame that the images are so small - it's almost impossible to see what the image is of in some cases at that size and when presented with a choice of images to click on, I'm sure most people will go for the ones where they can see what the design is about! On my blog, I put all the GCU ones together at the beginning because I had the feeling that if they were mixed in with the Zazzle ones, they'd mostly have been overlooked completely!
 
Anyway, maybe this is a further refinement that the GCU staff could look into at some point to put GCU artists/designers on an equal footing with the Zazzlers?
