Viapagi Gallery Instructions
You should expect good results viewing and using the Viapagi Gallery site with most “current” browsers. We routinely tested the site during development on Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Safari. We do not recommend using the site with versions of Internet Explorer prior to IE8. If you experience unexpected problems using site features, try another browser – they’re free and easy to deploy.
There is only one Viapagi Gallery website, however there are access points to the site in several locations:
Access direct www.viapagi.com or http://viapagi.phxartgroup.com. They all lead to the same site
If you have forgotten your username and/or password, you can use the recover username/password feature and have this info emailed to you.
-
If you cannot remember the email address associated with the account, call customer service at (602)305-4830
The home page was designed to provide quick, easy access to Viapagi imagery and one-click access to other important areas of the site. The header you see on the home page is also found on all other pages on the site so it is convenient to start a search from any part of the site.
-
You will only have access to the Viapagi Gallery if you are logged in. At the top left of the header you will see your logged in name: “Welcome Username”. At the top right you will see links to View Cart, My Account, Order Status and Logout.
-
Prominently at the top of each page are links to the two main category filters – Subject and Artist. If you hover your mouse pointer over these category menu items, you will see a drop-down listing of Subjects (29) or Artists (71) sub categories.

Hover and click on any sub category and you will link to a filtered selection of images for that sub category.

The substrate choice and options are displayed by clicking the corresponding tab label.
Tool Tips: to the right of each tab label there is a question mark icon called a tool tip. Hover your mouse over the icon and additional details about the substrate choice is displayed
If you want to preserve the configuration but do not want to add to cart, use your browser print feature. Print to your printer or a pdf (try CutePDF or PDFComplete).
A sizing slider was implemented to make it easy to price the selected image at various sizes. The slider controls the image size. The overall size includes the image size plus the dimension of frame and mat or, in the case of loose canvas or paper, the unprinted border
-
Dragging the slider to the right will show the maximum size a selected image can be produced (it’s different depending on substrate and/or certain options).
-
Canvas and paper sliders increment in 1” steps and other substrates increment at ½” steps. Use the +/- buttons at each end of the slider to fine-tune the desired size.
Shopping cart is where you stage your purchase choice(s) prior to actually checking out. This is also where you would create an email to share a collection of configured items with a client or associate.
