I am thinking of having a Secret Gallery on the the vandalart website. Do'nt know how it will work yet. But I will keep you posted. All I can say it will be exclusive to forum members only and will sell the rarer versions, exclusive prints and deals.
I need to speek to the programmer

More soon, cheers

Its just an idea at the moment, A place for true collectors, flipper free zone,
as any body got any thoughts

[Montubu7]

Good idea, everywhere else has secret places that are so secret i cant find them!

[dmandpenfold]

POW's secret gallery is superb....

[Rourke]

Cheers Thomas The Toast Boy & dmandpenfold.
I didnt know POW had 1, I thought I was being innovative (if thats the right word)

Any body got an ideas for this, what ya might want or what I could offer ect.

I thought a might personally sign stuff on this section to each induvidual print, eg your name or something.

great idea. i guess the easiest way would be to issue passwords and only let people in who email/password you want. keep it simple. put me on the list though

The best secret galleries are a total secret, I don't know of any as they are top secret. But I hear they don't make much money and they often go bankrupt cos no-one can find them.

[Rourke]

Maybe change the name to 'notsosecret gallery' then ;D
Great works you have got there www.campbarbossa.com

[finsburyparkranger]

Put me down. Can we have secret parties with secret beer too? ;D

[romanywg]

One gallery did have a secret page that only around 15 people knew about. Then one of those 15 started to get greedy and flip some prints and of coarse it closed down. Used to love the goodies on that page. It was like being a member of an exclusive club.

Great idea....if you know about it and are a member. I'd be super intrigued though if I wasn't involved in the party and would probably sulk. ;D

[Rourke]

Cheers everybody, I'll get thinking. Any more thoughts just drop em in

i suggest looking through the Ian francis thread regarding the set of prints he just released. that was done in a kind of secret gallery kind of way and it caused lots of debate.

[Suit]

It's a great idea, but how you you invite the right people?

So many threads on this site talk about how best to release print to cut out the "flippers" I'm guessing most of these flipper etc a hundred times more likely to get hold these sort of password than I am!

If you can make it work though great idea.

[Rourke]

Cheers Slammer and Suit
Thanks for your input

[Suit]

Just reread my last post.

Great work with the typing, think I need to read before I post in future.

[Rourke]

;D I got what ya meant

[themightyreds]

its a great idea, but only if you get onto the list that knows...!
if not it could be a bit of an old-boys club...

I'd say give it a try and see what happens!

[Rourke]

themightyreds thanks mate

[loucastel]

Special issues for members like artists proof ,sold on the proviso that they will not be resold for a period of time (you choose lenght of time Rourke) if sold before then they will be court marshalled or something, have their nads removed perhaps. bloody good idea,

[Rourke]

Thanks loucastel, good idea.
These are my thought so far…
Just an idea: The website is based around a military theme. What about something like a 'Officers Mess' where only officers can go. Certain people will be ranked, ranging from private through to field Marshall. Allowing certain priveleges depending on your Rank. The 'Court Marshall' thing could fit in well.

What do you think, or anymore ideas?

[hanky]

Knowing my luck I'll just get on the way to officer status and then busted back to enlisted rank then art really will be mirroring reality.

Doesn't faile have a 'secret' area on their website, or was that just a joke?
