Race Photography. Goal: Sell pictures fast, effortlessly, efficiently.
I first tried dotphoto.com's online sales thing. See it at http://keith204.dotphoto.com
Didn't work out well, cause I couldn't load all the pics on there that I wanted.
Now, I use Coppermine photo Gallery http://www.w3bolivar.com/cpg
Dotphoto: people can order prints directly off the web. They see a picture, check it, click the desired size, pay, and it gets delivered directly to the customer. Nice setup. CONS: no way to batch upload, and even if there was a way to batch upload... i have to pay 20 bucks per gigabyte I use.. that means that I'm looking at about $40 per race, just to put my pics there.
Coppermine: I can FTP all my files to MY web server (yes mine, not dotphoto's) and then do a BATCH ADD FILES so then it takes me about 2 minutes to add all 500 files. CONS: people can't buy photos directly off there. SO.... they have to send me an email, and I print them, and I take them to the next race to hand them out.
I want a combination of both....basically, a DotPhoto that I can put on MY own web server (PHP) and that can do BATCH ADD FILES like Coppermine.
Any ideas?
