If you are a visual artist and looking for an on-line WEB 2.0 community, where you can showcase your artworks and photographs, share them with fellow artists, build your own network, create an online portfolio and publish it, then Dripbook is the perfect place for you. In a nutshell, Dripbook is a full-fledged WEB 2.0 community for visual artists, painters, illustrators, photographers, graphic designers, animators, fashion designers, printmakers, sculptors and architects. One needs to register with Dripbook to avail the services offered by the site. Currently Dripbook is invitation-only for new accounts and does not offer direct registration. To create a new Dripbook account, you need to send a request to them with a little brief about you. Once they receive your request, they will review it and if satisfied, they will send you an access code to your email address. This access code is needed to create a new account on Dripbook. The standard membership is free, but one can upgrade a free account to a premium account with a nominal charge of USD 12 monthly, $ 30 quarterly or $ 108 annually. The premium membership will allow the user to publish customized website, upload more images and create more books.

Once registered (Standard or Premium), one can start uploading the images, publish books (portfolios), create his/her profile and portfolio page. Dripbook allows all its users to have customized URL for their portfolios. The URL is simple to remember and looks like this: http://www.dripbook.com/[username]/

I have created my art portfolio on Dripbook and got my personal URL too. Please visit my art portfolio on Dripbook at following location:
