Hello everyone,

I'm building a website for a friend who is a photographer, and he wants to sell his images online.

I want to build something much like what is found here: http://www.christian...white/aircraft/

That is, where you have a page for each image, and the ability to dynamically change the image frame from some set choices, as well as the matte colour and size of the picture and dynamically update the price, and be then able to add it to the cart to purchase.

I was going to use jQuery, javscript & CSS for dynamically updating the price, changing the frame and matte colour and size. But I don't know what plugin would help me achieve this on a Wordpress site. The site above was built on Wordpress so it is possible.

Any help on what plugins etc. I would need to build this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! :)

Nice site buddy,

I think your gonna have to roll your own PHP page in Wordpress for that, and have it talk directly to the PSP. Once they give you good to go on payment, store the customer info - unless you want to grab it before they go and pay.

PayPal have a really nice api to work with.
