Featured Artists Program
Every file uploaded on MellySend is framed by your work. Your canvas. Their audience. Millions of creative professionals, seeing your art every single day.
Galleries collect dust. MellySend is where creatives go every day to send their work. Photographers, designers, agencies, studios. Your art becomes part of their workflow. Not a post they scroll past, but a backdrop they sit with.
A credit line with your name and a direct link to your portfolio or Instagram appears on every single page view. No fine print. A real, dofollow backlink that helps people find you.
No cropping. No filters we slap on. No watermarks. Your image fills the entire screen exactly as you created it. Full-bleed, edge to edge, the way it was meant to be seen.
Your images are end-to-end encrypted. We will never feed them into training models. We will never sell your metadata. We respect the work because we believe the work matters.

How it works
Photography, illustration, digital art. Whatever makes people stop and look twice. Fill out the form below with a link to your portfolio.
We'll review your work and reach out within a week. Together we choose the image that works best as a full-screen backdrop.
Your art becomes the MellySend homepage for 2 to 4 weeks. Your name and link credited on every single view.
Anything with strong mood, color, and scale. Photography, illustration, digital painting, graphic art. We look for pieces that feel immersive at full-screen resolution.
Usually 2 to 4 weeks. We rotate artists to keep things fresh, but popular features sometimes run longer. We'll let you know well in advance.
It's an exposure partnership. You keep all rights to your work. We provide the platform, the creative audience, and a permanent credit with a link back to you.
At least 2560 by 1440 pixels. Wider aspect ratios work best since the image fills the full browser viewport. We can help optimize if needed.
Please do. Send your best 3 to 5 pieces and we'll choose together which one works best as a full-screen background.
Never. Our entire stack is open source and we take artist rights seriously. Your images are only ever used as homepage backgrounds. Nothing else.
