Create your own gallery, showcase your works, offer a guided tour: all this quickly and easily with Artsteps.

Artsteps is a platform that allows you to create your own gallery for free in five simple steps, it gives you the ability to upload images, videos, 3D models and text, and be able to place them wherever you prefer, but before you go to that, you must have a room in which to give place to the exhibition, so here are the steps to follow to create a gallery on Artsteps:

1. Define the space
   The site provides both the ability to create your own template, building walls and installing doors in them, and to choose from the free templates available.
   Building is very simple and allows you to further customize your setting, and make it more suitable to your needs.

2. Space design
   After choosing or building the room, you can add colors and textures templates available on the platform for editing the walls and floor. You can change the texture of any wall you create, both externally and internally. The textures available are many, but if you want you can add them by uploading them either as files from your PC or by uploading the URL.

3. Add and place the artworks
   Once the room is ready, it’s time to place the works, not only, if you want to make the place more realistic you can place 3D elements such as benches, chairs or tables. Artsteps provides a few of them, but offers the possibility to upload them, the only limitation is the file size, which can't exceed 4mb.

4. Planning a guided tour
   Adding a guided tour is optional, but it is advisable to use it in the case of inexperienced users who don't know how to move around the place or where to start from. It is also advisable to add information for each point in the guide (title and description), to better help the viewer orient themselves.

5. Define the project information
   The last step is to add information about the project, i.e. gallery name, description, category and tags, to make it easier to find.
      

At this point you can publish the project by pressing the "Publish" button, and it will be visible to anyone who looks for it or has the link. The project is editable even after it has been published, if you have realized that a work is missing or there is some error in the guided tour, you can fix it without problems.
