[QUOTE="wud, post: 179401, member: 13578"] Okay I've been working on this for almost 2 weeks now and I am getting pretty frustrated now! I cross my fingers, that someone in here have found a solution which works for them. What I need: a gallery with a password, containing 10-150 pictures. This can be for 1 person or for several persons. I am trying to offer 2 things: personal photography, for this just 1 person get the password. And group photography, where say 6 people meet up with their dogs, to be photographed during training. So its not groupshots, its personal shots but just... many of those. At the beginning I would just create packages for personal pictures, but people keep asking me if they can see and buy more. Tried Zenfolio, Squarespace and Smugmug. [U]At Zenfolio:[/U] I can create a gallery, people can checkout through Paypal. Great. I created my own products which made it possible to use danish currencies, they contain a file for download (print too, but this isnt a problem (yet, lol)). BUT, in the galleries where people should see their images, if I chose "download not allowed, people dont get the file for download! I have to manually mail it myself. If I chose "download allowed", people can just right-click and download all the pictures, without paying. Also, so far I havent been able to mail myself (pretending to be a costumer) an automatic email containing the chosen files.. You see my problem, if 7 people want 15-25 images each? [U]At Squarespace[/U] I cannot use their integrated shopping cart as they use Stripe, and Stripe do not work with my country. Then I myself can create a Paypal bottom - but again, people can just right click and save the images, without paying. Also, again, I get an email saying they ordered different images, but I have to manually email them... [U]Smugmug[/U], hmm I forgot. For once, I thought it was pretty expensive. And I think I ran into the same problems... Gah! How in the world can this be so hard?? [/QUOTE]
