ArtPal

ArtPal is a WordPress e-commerce plugin that was originally created with artists in mind.  If an independent artist tries to sell their work online, they won't necessarily have a huge inventory.  Thus, why have high overhead costs for something so simple?  That's where ArtPal comes in, because it is free and allows you to integrate Paypal with your WordPress blog.  Integrating Paypal into your site with ArtPal only requires your PayPal email address.  It's that simple.  Beyond the easy integration, ArtPal also offers real-time sales tracking.  This is vital, as it will disable a piece of artwork from being sold twice in the event that there is no backup inventory.
