GemFind Ring Builder™
ONLINE
DEMO
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, 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.

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
managable 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. |
