Simple, affordable website template for visual art

Flatfile is inspired by the physical storage system for which it’s named. Galleries, universities and artists buy flat file cabinets to organize and store their work. This is the digital equivalent.

( User Guide & Support
Pay-for-help or do it yourself

Web 2.0 has made putting a Web site together much easier. But even so, we know that a big barrier for many artists getting online is their comfort level with the tools. We don’t want you to have to go at it alone. For those who want help getting up to speed we offer a one-time session for $200 or a one-week retainer for $400. You’ll have direct access to a person. For the many of you ready to tinker, we’re putting up as many how-to videos and links to WordPress documentation. Note many of your support questions will likely be about WordPress — the open-source software that runs Flatfile. Take a look at what we have before you buy to see if you should budget for in-person support.
