Artifact Uprising is an American publishing and printing website. Offering hardback and softback book, prints, cards and a platform for you to sell your work. The website is simplistic and uses mostly monochrome tone contrast between different areas of the page and the text is compliant with this. All text is in capitals and evenly spaced. The logo is the same as the website, simplistic; however it looks elegant and strong. This all suggests that it is aimed at the professional or the upper class. The prices of the books also support this.

 

Firstly you need to select the type of book you would like, I have chosen the soft back because it was similar to that of a magazine. It then goes on to ask what size I would like so I chose an A4 page size.

 

Again the editing window is all online allowing you to save projects and also use other online picture services like Instagram so you have access to all your images. The main two tools are along the bottom, uploading images and changing templates. To move images from the uploader you simply drag and drop to the template area; changing the template style is the same except to the page. A special feature they provide is the blank page. At first I thought it might just be for if you want a blank page with no images however I accidentally dropped an image on to it and you are given freedom to do what you like. You can change the sizes and positioning of the images in any way. 

I have decided to use this website for my book due to it's professionalism, versatility and customisation. Although their products are quite expensive they have very good quality paper and are a recognised brand for publishing.
