New Website and Clearance, by Storm Fine Arts on Dec 6, 2017 11:18:46 GMT 1, Hi All,
I hope you are having a great run-up to Christmas!
We are in the middle of having a new, more up to date website built and we are looking to sell quite a bit of our stock in the process. You may have noticed that we have had a few of these sales recently and we would like to explain why. We are just about to re-work our gallery, with an emphasis on originals and collectable items/curio and as such some of our current stock is unsuitable. We are offering 40% off all pieces until Sunday Midnight.
As a result, we need to buy new items and sell any of the pieces that wont be part of our new direction.
If you would like to make a purchase, please contact us via our website, by email (info@stormfinearts.com), phone on 07917 524 442, or on here.
We have quite a few prints left by big names (and small!) so take a look and feel free to make an offer on any pieces you desire. See our website (www.stormfinearts.com) or look at some of our artists directly.

New Website and Clearance, by Storm Fine Arts on Dec 8, 2017 14:21:50 GMT 1, Version of Watership Down on the Al Murphy website is the unsigned unlimited giclee. The version we had (now sold) was the larger (70x50) signed original edition of 100 screenprint by AM from 2010.
The rolling stones edition sold out in 2011. It is typical of POW to add 10 more copies without any appreciation 6 years later as one final F*&* you to people like me (and frankly any independent collector as well). FYI, the print was actually more expensive when it was released (£75) so this completely proves my point.
If dealers were all lucky enough to be able to deal in entirely exclusive editions (exclusive to one gallery only) on the primary market from great artists, we might be in a situation to offer prints at these kinds of prices. Just like a private collector, our pieces appreciate in value and our job is to buy works which we believe will accrue value, monetary or otherwise, over time. I don't like flipping unless I am specifically sourcing for a client and even then I don't always make money on it.
On the private side of my life i collect many things, not just art, and collecting something you can enjoy AND that appreciates in value at the same time is a very rewarding thing and certainly not new.
I'm not an enemy and I'm certainly not in this to rip people off. If you want to buy a copy of Rolling Stones from POW, I would!

New Website and Clearance, by rockbeer on Dec 8, 2017 15:03:14 GMT 1, I'd have thought this would be difficult to diagnose without reading them. Especially as it seems to be only affecting some traffic.
What's going on is something like this:
If a browser requests a specific file - i.e. www.stormfinearts.com/index.html (in which case the browser is asking for the file index.html in the root directory of the server - and the server can't find it, then it will generally serve a 404 file not found error.
However, if the browser asks for a directory without specifying a particular file - i.e. www.stormfinearts.com/ (in which case the browser has asked for the site's root directory) - the way the server will respond will depend on:
1. How it's configured and
2. What the requested directory contains.
Generally, the server will be set up to look for a default file, usually called something like index.html, index.htm, index.php or some other variant, and if it finds such a file, to serve it up in response to the directory request.
If the server doesn't find such a default file, then depending on how it's configured it will either serve up a list of all the files contained in the requested directory or, more usually, an error such as the 403.14 error under discussion if directory listings are disabled.
(Listings are usually disabled for security reasons, i.e. so hackers can't browse the contents of a directory and open files that aren't specifically linked to.)
In this case it would appear that some requests for the root directory are being interpreted as directory listing requests while others aren't. You need to figure out why.
One thing I can tell you is that your server doesn't seem to have any of the standard default index files in place as listed above, which is kind of asking for trouble. Usually even if the site's configured to serve up dynamic content, it's standard practice to put an index.html or index.php in place to handle unusual/unexpected requests.

Does this link work for any of you who were previously having problems?

Thanks for that. I think you’ll find little sympathy from many in respect of your view of POW. They are selling off items at release price or less as part of a closing down sale so I don’t see as that proves your point. I merely pointed out a difference in prices; that’s what tends to happen on here. Passing on knowledge etc. You seem to have taken it badly. I wasn’t aware that the Al Murphy after market was so strong. I have a copy of the Kitchen Disco children’s book he illustrated. I shall take it off my five year old at once.

No problem. Unfortunately the sarcasm in the first post, and the second, led me to believe your reason for posting was not benevolent. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Furthermore, POW have a history of being anarchic/anti-establishment. That was the only point I was making.

New Website and Clearance, by Storm Fine Arts on Dec 8, 2017 17:49:31 GMT 1, Certainly appreciate the advice re: the website - that is the main reason we are doing a rebuild.
As regards prices, I'm sorry you feel that way, but we do try and offer good prices whilst still being able to run a profitable company. If there is anything you feel is particularly overpriced we would always be happy to hear about it. Any constructive criticism is always welcomed!
