“Virtual Exhibit for PastPerfect 5.0

Virtual Exhibit 5.0 is the fast and easy way to put your exhibits online. Virtual Exhibit converts selected collection records and images from PastPerfect into HTML pages for posting online. Simply select the records you want to share and Virtual Exhibit will create the HTML, resized and watermarked images, and related files. You can then upload to your website or burn to CD for a portable virtual exhibit. No HTML programming knowledge is required to create informative and attractive Web-based exhibits.

With Virtual Exhibit 5.0:

• Create online exhibits in just a few minutes from your PastPerfect catalog records.
• Design custom layouts with no web design or HTML programming experience.
• Develop exhibits without physical space limitations.
• Open your exhibits to a whole new audience.
• Support your museum’s in-house exhibits with complementary Virtual Exhibits.

Virtual Exhibit is a great way to promote your museum’s exhibits and events. You select which PastPerfect records to include, and which data fields and images to share. Virtual Exhibit automates the work and allows you to personalize the home page, color scheme, font size, image size, and more with simple on-screen selections. Since Virtual Exhibit is now based on Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), the possibilities for customization are endless.”
