so at my school i am selling Prints to build a shelter in Peru so the street children will have a place to live and sleep.
what doyou think of my set up?



and doyou think i should dedicate my dpcprints for a while for this cause?
i remind you i am taking NO profit from this and every cent is going towards the shelter for the kids.
it is called Prints 4 Peace

Great idea! The board could use a little work to make it a little more friendly. Make the numbers a whole lot smaller. If someone is interested in the photo, they'll come up close and then be able to read the number; right now they just distract from the photos. Also, try to square them up a little on the board. The cleaner and more professional it looks, the more seriously people will take it. Great concept though. Dedicating your dpcprints to it would be an easy way to get more people interested in your cause and buying prints or donating.

i was going to put alot more into the display, but ive been selling them for 2 days now and the majority of 14-17 year olds really don't appreciate art at all. But the people that did absolutly loved them and bought prints. i only ended up selling 6-8x12's and 5-4x6's.

and what dyou recommend i should make prices for when i put it on dpcprints.
and how should i showcase my dpcprints so people actualyl know about it

is there anyway to have a computer running by your board display with DP Prints running on it? (hopefully they wouldn't go to anyone elses images and stick with buying yours) Otherwise maybe just have a page printed out with the web address on it so they can take it with them and order at their lesiure.

good luck and a great cause.
