What’s new
Everything we changed
The short version of what changed, newest first — only the things you notice as an artist or a buyer. Missing something you need? Tell us — a fair number of the lines below started as someone’s e-mail.
v2.2218 September 2026
The new Online Gallery is live
- NewOnline Gallery moved to its new home this month. Every artist, artwork and news story came along, and old links keep working.
- NewThe site now speaks seventeen languages. Artist bios, artwork descriptions and news appear in your language wherever the artist provided a translation.
- NewArtists’ own websites can be shown in several languages, with a language switch for visitors. The default language follows the artist’s country.
- BetterFaster pages: artwork cards load smaller images, and the homepage keeps the same selection all day instead of changing with every visit.
v2.135 August 2026
Run your own auction
- NewThe auction tool: set up a charity or studio auction, put it on a big screen, take bids from the room by phone, and let the winners pay by link.
- NewFor people who run auctions for a living: copy a whole auction for next time, export results and bidders as a spreadsheet, and share one account with colleagues.
v2.125 August 2026
Search that understands what you mean
- BetterSearch “big eye” and you now find the ferris wheel. We widen your words to related ones and tell you which — no more empty results because you used a different word than the artist did.
- BetterEvery artwork is now tagged with the objects in it — a car, a windmill, a church — as well as its style, theme and colours. So you can search for what you see, not just what it is called.
v2.115 August 2026
Shipping, without looking anything up
- NewTell us how a work travels — rolled in a tube, in a box, in a crate — and we work out what shipping costs. Buyers see a real amount for their own country, right under the price.
- NewEvery payment now produces an invoice you can download, grouped by year.
v2.95 August 2026
Your artworks in the order you want them
- NewDrag your artworks into the order you want, or nudge them with the arrows. The order you set is the order visitors see — on your profile and on your own website.
- NewMy account: change your plan, update your payment method, enter your VAT number and cancel without writing us an e-mail.
v2.74 August 2026
A mailing list that belongs to you
- NewA sign-up block for your own website, a confirmation mail, and a subscriber list in your dashboard. The list is yours — export it whenever you like.
- NewWrite your mailing with blocks: headings, text, images, buttons. Your name is the sender and replies come straight back to you.
v2.63 August 2026
Museums, galleries and fairs to visit
- NewVisit: a map with over 900 museums, galleries and art fairs, with exhibitions, dates and ticket links.
- BetterYour work sits between the exhibitions people already come here to browse.
v2.52 August 2026
See it hanging before you decide
- NewView in room: your work on a wall at its real size, on any device. On an iPhone or iPad, augmented reality places the actual work in the actual room — no app needed.
- NewWorkshops on your own site: dates, spots, sign-ups and payment links.
v2.01 August 2026
Online Gallery, rebuilt
- NewA new Online Gallery, built from the ground up: faster, mobile first, and yours.
- NewYour own website in thirty designs, on your own domain, kept in sync with your profile automatically.
- New0% commission on every plan. Buyers pay you directly.
- NewOG Academy: twenty-five guides on pricing, photographing and approaching a gallery.
