What is the cost? Our basic package consists of:
Your own home page on our site.
Individual pages of your own design (maximum of 25). You furnish all descriptions, BIO and other information.  You may choose your fonts, back- ground colors, placement, etc. If you prefer, we will do this for you
at no additional charge.  All you have to do is submit the information.   
There is a one time design and set up fee of $79.00 and a monthly fee of $20.00 for hosting and maintainance. Fees are payable in advance and may be quarterly, semi-annual, or annual payments. A 5% discount is given for yearly payments.
We require a minimum SIX MONTH commitment.

The site designs will be customized by/for each artist. We will include our header and navigation bars, but the rest of the site is your choice.
Is there a commission? If you compleete the sale and arrange for payment, shipping, and all   details with no involvement by VA Artists, there is no charge.   VA    Artists will NOT be responsible for any problems that arise.
We strongly suggest,
however that you use Pay Pal services through VA Artists. This will protect both the buyer and you as the seller.
Since we are charged by Pay Pal, there will be a Commission Fee of 10% of the selling price up to $500.00, and 2.5% for any amount over that.  (Example: Our fee for selling a $2000 painting would be $50 + $37.50 = $87.50.) 
How do I pay? The initial design fee and minimum first quarter payment are due at the signing of the contract.
How do I get paid? Each month Pay Pal deposits all of VA Artists sales into a special account.
VA Artists will remit checks to the artists (less Commission Fees) within 30 days of the Pay Pal deposit.
What is the charge for changes ? All Text changes are made at no charge.
TEN graphic changes are included with your monthly fee.
Additional changes will be charged at $1.50 per graphic.
If scanning is involved, additional charges may apply.
Will my work be seen and advertised? •VA Artists will advertise its site in all major internet browsers.
We cannot guarantee sales, but we will do everything possible to enhance and update the site to increase sales and attract potential buyers.
