      1. Not to make this more complicated but… I was reading the other comments and realize i like the 2nd because of the black matting behind it. Finishes off the product. Have you tried hanging the first one with a black mat? And your most welcome.

      2. A black frame. I can do, I wonder if it’s against the dark wall if that would look too moody.

         And you’re not complicating things. Useful feedback is ALWAYS welcome! 🙂

      3. My eye is drawn to the hangar in the first display… but the point made about what you are purchasing is important. So, if you go with the second, emphasizing print only is crucial. Want people to be satisfied. Still like the 2nd. Much more appealing to me.

3. If it is just the print you are selling, I would go with the The moody dark Threadless image. If I saw the light and airy Etsy frame image as the storefront “sales” image, I might assume it was a framed print I was getting.

5. Framed and hung on a wall, the second image is how one might expect to see a piece of art displayed. Therefore, for its quirkiness in this quirky world, I prefer the first image.

9. I like the 2nd one. Although it’s in black frame, but the whole background feels light. The black frame only enhance the black artwork. It’s a right color combination.

13. I prefer the first – because it shows you are selling the art work and not the frame. If I buy a piece of art I might frame it very differently to the offered frame, finding a compromise between my living room (or wherever I wanted to display the art) and the art itself. Therefore I prefer an unfinished look that stresses the art and leaves the display to me.

    1. Cheers, Devina. I do have the option, but nearly everything goes abroad. Not a good idea to send frames in an international post in my opinion. Asking for something to break, heh.

20. I prefer the second image. Even though it’s clear I will need to purchase a frame, to me the image with frame looks more like “art” while the first one looks like a “poster”.

25. I’m with Wally Jay – I think the first one really represents the aesthetic of Little Fears. It’s quirky, clean and showcases the artistic feel of it. Also, to my eyes, it’s clearer. Could be the darker background. When I saw the two choices, for me, it was the hanger, no hesitation. Fun to have a poll on a Monday!!

42. Neither. Can you find some middle ground? Not everyone has bricks. Not everyone is minimal. You have twenty seconds and you lost at least 40% by setting your wares in a “scene.” Find the rhetorical commonality of your target market and soften the edges. Let the buyer fill in the background. Sell the content in way that lets potential buyers imagine it somewhere. You know what I mean. The old marketing “sell the stuff, not the ethnically androgynous happy family enjoying it.” Meyers/Briggs, bro, Find the bullseye and serve it up.

45. Since you’re wanting to draw to the sale of an art piece, I think one with a frame that looks like a real frame would be best. The first one seems more like a kid-like hanging of a picture. The second one feels more like a poster. However, of the two, the first one definitely seems more arty than the second. I hope that helps.
