What blockchain-based, decentralised applications allows, keeps fascinating me but I also often end up in front of concepts that I must admit having a hard time to grasp.
So when a few months ago, Makersplace proposed me to take part of their project, it took me a while to figure out how buying a unique digital file is possible or simply, why is this even interesting to anyone? (my concerns being mostly like: should people get a printable file? What if then they start print them and sell them? Well, artistic copyrights concerns). They kindly explained me how it is more comparable to a collectible card (like football cards or so) but I am neither a card collector, so I was still a bit in the fog! :D
Anyway I am curious so I eventually registered and uploaded enough images to be in the first featured artists.
It came particulary abstract to me when about to set a price and a number of editions. So, at the moment I am trying various combinations.
In any case, it is nice to see that some fellow Steemians like 
Thanks to them for making posts, they are bringing bits of light to my nooby head.
If you don't know Makersplace, here's their "About" section.
"MakersPlace is a platform that empowers digital creators (artists, designers, writers and more) to create and sell their unique digital creations with the help of the Ethereum blockchain. For the first time ever, creators are able to sign and set a limited supply on their work, providing verifiable proof of authenticity, ownership and scarcity on the blockchain. In doing so, creators are able to better capture the full underlying value of their digital work.
We're a passionate group of veteran technologists and creators with decades of experience building consumer products, based in San Francisco, California. We've seen first hand the inequality in the immense value created and what's actually captured by digital content creators and are looking to change that.
We're currently invite-only. If you're interested in joining, send us your email address on our homepage and we'll get in touch. You can also contact us on our Discord channel."

While indeed the team is responsive and I can see new features (like the credit card linked with Stripe) regularly appearing, there is still to me, some important elements missing:
A preview/test view to see well how it'll exactly look like once published (and cropped). They said it's inherent to Blockchain to not be able to modify, which it is true but if Steemit has a way to edit, then I hope there might be a way to implement that too.
Fields to include external links from the profile and from the image themselves (to provide more info about it). I think it is, however, planned to come at some point.
It'd be also great to be able to arrange the order of the images.
Except that or if I forgot other complains, I am rather enthusiastic about Makersplace and looking forward for its development!

Obviously you can also buy touchable, physical artworks on my website, along with prints (that are more affordable than an original piece). Just head to http://www.haedre.com or click on the image below and contact me.
The first 5 to buy something will receive a free edition of "Mind Amph"!!
Thanks for having read my post!
