Title: Printing Affiliate Link
Post by: thenewdude on December 23, 2003, 07:07:58 am: If www.ShutterFly.com (http://www.ShutterFly.com) or any other similiar photo printing service* ever makes an affiliate program (there are not any that I know of) than, each photo could have a direct affiliate link to print the photo. While the webmaster earns commision!

Post by: Joachim Müller on April 17, 2005, 11:19:34 am: nice mod, however not a feature that should go into the core, as printing services (pricing, availability) differ depending on what part of the world you're coming from. Services that will work fine in the US won't be available in Europe or Asia (or somewhere else on this planet). As coppermine is an international project that is meant to be used world-wide, such a feature would be "bloat" for the majority of users (at least those who don't reside in the USA). However, there should be a hook for it in the plugin API imo. Marking thread as "turned down".

The large font was done by thenewdude back in 2003. ;)

Post by: krkeegan on April 18, 2005, 05:15:56 am: Valid point. I had failed to consider the international implications. This was a fairly easy mod in 1.4. And it really could be a seperate theme without any mods.

And sorry about the how font, but it was't me I swear ???

Post by: Joachim Müller on April 18, 2005, 06:15:06 am: Hehe, you're not to blame. As Thu pointed out, this was in 2003, when we still used phpBB. The large font is a result of the forum software conversion, so the only one to blame is me who did the conversion. You did the right thing and posted a mod, which is perfectly OK for everyone who needs it, and it's OK as well to post in the thread that requests a feature, telling everybody that it has been accomplished (no matter if it's done using a mod or a core functionality). I'm editing the first posting, removing the extra large font attribute.
