I am working with a client who has an extensive art collection that needs to be catalogued. I am looking for a art database that is web accesible. So far gallery 3 is all that comes up in my search. Any comments on this product or others would be great.

Mon, February 12, 2007 - 10:22 AMDanke, I was comming to that conclusion. The problem is finding a engineer that has a clue on how the art business works. This is a longterm project that my client thinks is a short term one. Ah the wonders of freelance work.! -

Mon, February 12, 2007 - 10:55 AMwhile someone with that experience is desireable it needent be necessary. You jsut need to be able to provide an ouline of the process and the variables involved in whatever youre modeling the system on. Ther must be processes, tasks, and varibales that are implemented in some way now (i would assume on paper and what not as opposed to an electronic system). All you have to do is be able to give a through description of those things and the developer can then model those in the digital world. -

i've developed free-standing art collection databases for several art advisors, and am currently developing a web-based system that you might be interested in.
