ExhibitFiles opens!
April 23rd, 2007 by Wendy PollockThanks to Ideum and our team of beta testers, we’re now officially open, and the community is already beginning to grow! We invite all of our museum colleagues and friends to join up, contribute, and help build ExhibitFiles into a rich, collective resource. The blog will remain open for now, and we look forward to hearing users’ perspectives. Many thanks to Jim Spadaccini, James Kassemi, Geoff Escandon, Kemper Barkhurst, Chris Gerber, and all the others at Ideum who’ve been responsible for design and software development–and to the National Science Foundation for their support.

Hi guys. Just had a go at uploading a review and have some feedback:
* keywords - do you plan to have a drop-down list or some tags? I would have found that helpful, and can see that it might become messy
* there need to be some guidelines about how to upload images - eg size etc. I tried re-sizing images in Photoshop but didn’t work out for me (admittedly I’m pretty hopeless at that)
* unclear about what website URL it was - the reviewers’ or the exhibition?
ditto with city, etc - was that for the exhibition or mine? Being non-US I don’t have a clue what state most of the cities are in. It also doesn’t appear in the review so was wondering why you need to enter it?
That’s it for now. I do love the potential of the site I must say.
