Avoiding Art Theft From Online Galleries
With the huge growth in online galleries has come a huge growth in theft (or illegal/unauthorized use) of online images. A new 3D flash gallery concept provides 'security' for online images, protecting the artwork and photographic images of artists from around the world.
(PRWEB) August 24, 2005 -- Have you ever wanted to display your work or
photos to the world on an online gallery but have been a bit concerned about
having your images stolen? Gogofrog’s 3d Web galleries let you display your
pictures spectacularly without having to worry about them being
downloaded.
Despite the shadow of online music “swapping” still hanging
over the Web, the internet has seen a dramatic increase in photo and video
gallery sites, both professional and personal. One of the issues with
conventional Websites is the propensity that many site visitors have of simply
clicking and stealing the images then using them for themselves. Because they
are Flash based sites, scores of professional artist around the world are now
using Gogofrogs’s 3d Web Space service to display their work with the knowledge
that their creations are not being copied by site visitors. Apart from this
feature, the 3d format of the sites creates a unique sensory feeling for the
viewer. It really feels like you are a visitor observing pictures at an art
gallery rather then viewing them in two dimensions on the internet.
Below
are some of the amazing 3d Websites created by professional artists and
designers. They will give you an idea of the unique design possibilities that
this innovative technology creates.

While
Gogofrog may lack the grunt of Flickr, it compensates this by putting the
artist’s or photographer’s work into a virtual gallery space. According to
Gogofrog CEO, the current Webspaces are just a glimpse of the potential that
Gogofrog sites can provide for artists and photographers. He says, “This is just
the beginning. We intend to further develop our own photo management tools
including enabling Flickr and other tools within our Gogofrog virtual galleries.
Together with separately listing all our online galleries, we will be providing
visitors literally thousands of virtual galleries of artists and photographers
from around the world to wander through at there leisure.”
