Collections are used to control how/whether images are available for sale or sharing.
Collections give you the flexibility to do things like:
- Make some images more expensive than others.
- Make certain images "Not for Sale".
- Offer different different products for different sets of images.
- Make some of your images available for licensing and others not.
Every new Fotomoto account comes with three basic Collections for you to use:
| Name | Buy Buttons Shown | Purpose | Editable? |
| For Sale | Buy Print, Buy Card, Download, eCard | For images you want to sell | yes |
| Not for Sale | none | For images you don't want to sell | no |
| Share Only | eCard | For image you want to share (only) via eCard or Facebook | no |
If you have certain images that you'd like to make available differently from those in For Sale, you'll need to upgrade to a paid Subscription plan to add more Collections. Pro plan users can add two Collections, and Pro Plus subscribers can create an unlimited number of Collections.
If you're just getting started, check out our Set product and pricing options for complete instructions.
