and unique environment before packing it up with a free viewer to send
to friends and relatives. Imagine hanging your photograph collection
using the frames you want and the lighting environment you want,
exactly where you want within a gallery. Then, sending that gallery to
your family allowing them to walk around it and look at the
photographs as if they were works of art! As an artist you could also
use it to promote your artwork by setting it within a gallery
framework for presentation to prospective customers or potential
employers. Instead of having to carry around great swathes of real
artwork to each potential employer you can simply take a CD with all
of your artwork and present it to them in a realistic gallery format.
As a gallery owner, you could promote yourself by compiling work held
within a "real" gallery into a "virtual" gallery within Image Armada
for distribution to a customer base, or simply make it available to
the general public on the Internet. For those who cannot visit you in
person, then the virtual gallery of Image Armada can be used as an
extra sales channel to help maximize your gallery's revenue.
