[|INDEXHIBIT]

Overview

 * Indexhibit is made up of PHP and MySQL scripts, but the user does not need to deal with those scripts unless they want to
 * is very easy to use, and lends itself to customization: simply install, log in, upload, organize and you have a beautiful web portfolio. A basic knowledge of CSS will go a long way!
 * many artists and designers use it to quickly upload a simple, elegant and completely functional web portfolio. Although, many people tend to like to challenge what Indexhibit can do and make masterpieces of coding. Browse through "participants" to see it all.
 * Hides the complex back-end coding for artists who have no idea how to use these technologies, yet is capable of such fluidity that gives way to creative freedom.

Analysis
The sheer fact that indexhibit is so popular among the design community is worth our focus. Indexhibit is a valuable resource for our investigation into the CCCA because it is catered towards the same target group: artists who want their work searchable on the net, who want to collaborate or get updates on their colleague's newest works, and artists who want to push data outwards his or her intended audience through the RSS technology

__Quick Overview of the Powers of Indexhibit__

Overall, there are several things that makes Indexhibit a very user friendly technology. It is well thought out, powerful, yet easy to configure.




 * 1)** After the user logs in, he or she will see a list of previously uploaded projects. To add a new project, press new.




 * 2)** Naming the project, giving it a section, and select the year of the project




 * 2)** Uploading files, entering the explaination/rationale of the project, as well as choosing the presentation format of the project, shows up on one page in the interface.

These presentations range from "slide show" to "Over and Over" - a simple blogspot-type stacking of the images (vertical scroll). Depending on the artists' preferences and projects, these styles of presentation can be very effective!
