Alternative
Photographers' Network
Alternative
Photographers' Network is a "not for profit" organisation and exists
to promote the work of emerging creative photographers. All membership income is used
to maintain, support and promote the website as a vehicle for reaching a
world-wide showcase for the work of our members. Alternative
Photographers' Network offers a unique service to amateur and professional
photographers to showcase samples of their work to a worldwide audience.
As a member, you can get this at a realistic annual cost without any of
the worries of setting up and maintaining a website of your own.
You can use it to sell your images, to attract viewers to your existing
website or simply to share your work with the Internet community.

Membership
options
Basic
membership costs £30 per year payable in advance by credit card. This entitles you to showcase one page of your images as you
can see on the existing pages (see example page).
Don’t worry if you don’t know how to produce a page layout, we will
do this for you free of charge from your jpeg files.
In fact, for a small extra charge we will even scan your prints for you.
If
you want additional pages, these are available at an additional charge of £5
per page per year each. (A
page comprises a maximum of 12 images each not to exceed 20kb).

How
to sell your work
There
are many photographers who simply wish to share their work with other
photographers, or those who share an interest in it, and do not intend to gain
an income from their hobby. However,
if you are a professional or even an amateur hoping to offset the cost of your
hobby, we are happy to help you.
If
you want to sell your work through our service, we are prepared to accept orders
on your behalf on a commission basis. This
gives added security to you and your customers.
Alternatively
you may deal directly with prospective purchasers by including your email
address on each of your pages, or by including a link to your own site if you
have one (see example page).
This service is charged at £5 per year in addition to the basic
membership charge, regardless of how many pages you are showcasing.
