As a spare time activity I'm putting together an exhibition of posters by Tom Eckersley for the ArtsPlace gallery on Eduserv Island. The posters, 24 of them, have been selected (and used with permission) from the Eckersley Archive hosted by the Visual Arts Data Service (VADS).As with any activity like this in the UK, clearing rights over the images has taken a while but I'm grateful to staff at VADS for dealing with this side of things on my behalf.
As you can see, I've got as far as uploading the images and plonking them onto poster sized prims. Note that I used Picnik, the online image manipulation tool, to add a frame to each poster. Now I need to get the sizes and aspect ratios correct, position them on the walls of ArtsPlace and create a notecard for each holding VADS catalog record for each of the selected posters. Shouldn't be too long, assuming I get my finger out.
Watch this space...
