At the top right of your profile, click the DOWN arrow. Select Privacy Settings....

High-Resolution Art Museums are not big fans of providing high-resolution digital versions of the art they’re exhibiting. Reasons such as helping in the creation of forgeries are often quoted for this. However, the Metropolitan Museum has decided to follow the lead of the Getty Trust and is making available online over 400,000 works of art. These fabulous works of art can be downloaded from the Museum’s website and what’s even nicer is that they can be used for non-commercial purposes....
