Retailers:
The GemFind Network has created the GemFind Ring Builder™ (GF Ring Builder™), a
flexible, brandable tool that lets your users create their own diamond rings online
using diamonds from your online inventory. This lets them see their ring and determine
the shape and size of the diamond(s) that best complete the look they want. You
can embed the Ring Builder directly and seamlessly into your website or you can
pop it up in a window. The Ring Builder can be branded with your name and title,
can be sized to fit your website layout, can be colored to match your website and
of course link to your online diamond inventory.

Diamond Dealers:
The GemFind Ring Builder™ will allow retailers' customers to preview and design
their own one and three stone rings, thereby aiding retailers in their sales efforts.
This value-added tool will strengthen your relationships with these retailers through
increased sales and customer satisfaction. Not only will retailers be able to offer
your diamonds over the Internet but they will be able to let consumers build rings
with your diamonds.
|
Ring Manufacturers:
The GemFind Ring Builder™ is a direct avenue for you to the consumer. Partnering
with GemFind to include your popular one and three stone wedding and engagement
rings in the GemFind Ring Builder™ not only lets consumers build their rings on
retailers sites, but it increases your product and market exposure while allowing
us to provide a tool that will ultimately help build your relationships with retailers
and drive new business. If your settings are available to retailers when they set
up their Ring Builder, they will be able to choose rings they carry or can order,
or they may be prompted to establish a relationship with you so that they may offer
your rings to their customers.

GemFind Ring Builder™ Specifications
All images of settings must comply with these specifications below to ensure the
best final appearance in the GemFind Ring Builder™. Review these specifications,
and contact us with any additional
questions. Learn more about How to Choose a Digital Camera for photographing jewelry
and gemstones.
Physical Image Specifications:
Image Size: 400 x 400 pixels
File Format: JPG (jpeg) format - please do NOT optimize.
Color Depth: Full color. 24-bit, 16.7 million colors (do not use 32-bit color
)
File Name: Please name each image file in lowercase and include your item/model
number.
Image Layout Specifications:
Background color: White or extremely light colored back ground. White preferred.
Ring status: Take picture of setting without findings/prongs.
Ring angle: Looking at ring from top down angle, top of ring must be rotated
away from you thirty degrees (30°) - take picture straight down from top (12 o'clock)
with ring at that angle. No left or right turning of the ring. See example.
Ring size within the image: There should be between 10 and 40 pixels between
the left and right edges of the image and left and right edges of the ring setting.
Center stone location: Top center of the digital image.
Picture Taking Process:
Catalog file of your images: Along with your image files, we will need a
text file or MS Word document with detail information for each setting. Information
for one ring setting per line please. Separate data field by "|" pipe symbol. Click here for a sample
file.
Lighting recommendations: Take pictures in an environment with bright diffused
or indirect lighting from several sources (overhead & sides). Direct spot lights
on the ring setting will generate excessive unwanted glares and light refraction.
Set up sufficient light sources so that no flash is required.
Camera recommendations: Try to take pictures using a digital camera with
an image resolution of around 1280 x 1024 pixels (1.3 megapixels) or 1024 x 768
pixels (0.8 megapixels). This will keep file size manageable and is more than sufficient
considering the final image size of 400 x 400 pixels. You do not need a $1000, five
mega-pixel camera to take good images. Do not use the flash (see lighting recommendations
above). Use a small tripod for stability and constant camera angle, and take all
images in a single session. Use the zoom a bit to permit moving the camera housing
away from the ring and prevent shadows. Use the same zoom setting for each image.
