- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
(After writing this, I realised I am after some CC on my website and ordering system and I am after some advice.)
I take a lot of photos of dogs at agility photos. It gives me something to do while my dogs are not running. I take a fair few and have had so many people asking me where they can buy them that my wife and I made a free wix page and put the photos up there. The website is fiddly and clunky and I am sure there is a better way to do it. Wife likes wix but I am in the Wordpress camp and would like to move over before we get too invested in it. People order photos from our website by getting the photo number and then send an email of the photos they want. We then will have to find the photos, organise payment and the send them to them hopefully by email or hightail.
I am after some advice as to what I want or at least point me in the right direction as I am sure there is no one size fits all solution. What I am after is a website that allows is to have the usual setup as in my signature. When people go I to the gallery page of their choice. They can then scroll through the page and select the photos they are after. Once they select they can organise payment with PayPal or CC or what ever they want to use as payment linked to out account. Once that happens we get an email saying someone bought photos and has paid. Invoices a re automatically sent and the whole thing is really automated. I am sure there are plug ins and services out there that offer some of the thing that im after.
If you have a similar setup on your website I would love to know what you use, how it works and how you find it. I am also happy to hear about others who have found better alternatives.
Look forward to seeing your pages and your solutions. Feel free to have a glance through our site in my signature to see our current setup.
