Making Framing interesting on your website?

[Apertura Photography]

Hi all, I hope you had a great Christmas.

I'm relatively new to the world of custom frames but I think it is really important to engage with customers on the internet these days and video seems to be the most efective way. I thought I would share two video time-lapses that I have recently posted which have helped with customer understanding of what we do and helps promote services in a visual way; we are after all working in the visual medium!

thanks for letting me know....not been reported before with over 600 views....anyone else having problems?

[David McCormack]

No problems here

Could you explain how you made the spacer/shallow box for the shirt? I liked the way you incorporated it all into the glass package instead of gluing it into he rebate of the frame with the glass already in place.

Worked for me too. Nice to see someone else working at the same speed as Roboframer

Hi David. As I say, I'm new to this and this was my first rugby shirt so I'm not the expert on here I am sure I am always keen to seal my frames as one package before the frame goes on as bugs always seem to get in one way or another here in N Yorks. For this reason, I made the package using a spacer from strips of 5mm foam core, glued and taped at each corner. I then glued the bottom of these strips to the backing board and taped them along each long edge with this GUMMED ARCHIVAL WHITE PAPER TAPE. I put the mount and glass on top and then sealed it to the foam strips as you saw, again with the same tape. The spacer is not held to the rebate but IMHO was held firmly by it's bottom edge being glued and then taped along the top and bottom edge. Hope that makes sense.

I fully endorse what you have done - there is a huge need ( worldwide) to educate the prospects, and make them think... I have a shirt like that - Hey, lets get it framed

What a good idea. Like the web site in general.

[Apertura Photography]

sorry about the problems viewing the videos. Seems like a problem with those that use firefox? I have changed the code for the embed and it is now working on my end in Chrome and Firefox. Thanks for the feed back and let me know if you are still having problems.

Hi Keith,

BTS, Frames etc are tags that I assign to each post in my blog to group them into categories. In future, people could click on the Frames tag and see all the blog posts about frames.
RSS feed....I've not really set this up yet but RSS (Rich Site Summary) is a format for delivering regularly changing web content. Many news-related sites, weblogs and other online publishers syndicate their content as an RSS Feed. A Feed Reader or News Aggregator software allow you to grab the RSS feeds from various sites and display them for you to read and use; saves you having to log on to each blog you follow.
Track back URL. A trackback is a way to notify a website when you publish an entry that references it. When you send it a trackback, a link with a short excerpt of your entry will appear on the referenced website.

Hope that helps!

Plays fine for me on Chrome.

Just one thing occurs to me. People being what they are, there are going to be more than a few that will think you really can frame a shirt in minute flat.

Pete, Better say thanks - but still mostly over my head. Shall ask my grand daughter, she informs me she knows everything. Maybe the guy who made my email Christmas card will come and explain.
