    Hi, I am looking to set us a business selling my photos, not via download, people select the photo they want and choose the size etc, make payment and the order is dispatched. I am also going to be offering different options. i.e Canvas Prints.

    Does anyone know or a good script that will do this, or if not a script some software?

    Thanks In Advance

    Something like Coppermine with the Photo Shop plug in (all open source), maybe with a custom skin, would do this.

    Hi, well I had a quick read throught the features and a look at the demo, and the first thing I noticed is that it is set up more like a forum than a web site, (although maybe this can be changed) the second thing is it doesn't take online payments, which is a must

    I don't need something overly complicated, as the site is only going to hold my own photos.

    I know I could use a shopping cart program, but ideally I'd like to find something that is specifically for this area.

    Hi dee This can be helpfull for you... Instead of going for an open source i will suggest you to go for a paid script

     http://www.ktools.net/photostore/index.php
    Code (markup):
    - expensive.

     http://www.hooverwebdesign.com/scripts/photo-store-script.html 
    Code (markup):
    - Easy to own.

    How many photos do you want to make available for purchase at any one time? I do use Coppermine but I always have thousands of photos available. If you're looking in the tens (or possibly hundreds) you could use Wordpress with one of the e-commerce plugins.

    Either case I can't see any reason to pay for a solution.
