We are looking for a very experienced freelancer/developer to develop a complete solution for our community based stock photo site built on coppermine.
It will have essentially most of the major tools that IStockPhoto has.
A short list of high level requirements are:
1. Image pages with information generated from database (images, image sizes, image owner, number of downloads, 5-star rating system, review, upload date, find similar)
2. Download ability of files. Upon purchase through 2checkout/paypal file should be available in their member area for download for 10 days (then expires so they cannot download anymore).
3. Security. The real picture path cannot be revealed to customer so that there will no security compromising.
4. Available Files. For each picture uploaded by photographer member, the picture will be automatically resized to AT LEAST three sizes: 640x480, 1024x768, 1152x864, 1600x1200 for download. This resizing and downloadability configuration should be built into admin control panel. We will only work with JPEG files.
5. Pricing. For the above configurable resolution file download, there will be a global price associated with each type of resolution, and one more type of pricing for Printed photo at different sizes. Pricing should be coded into the admin configuration area too. Individual Photographer Member will not be able to set own price.
6. Members area with profile information & editing ability, download history & receipts, lightbox, etc. For Photographer who upload, it has portfolio for uploaded photos (my gallery), photo upload ability, tracking of members photos downloaded by others & commission earned (account information).
7. Payment/Sales Management. All the payment will be paid to the site, and the profit will be distributed to photographers according to an admin configurable x% of the sale price for all photographers. In photographer member management or sales management area, there will be a default sort page that lists those photographers who have earned accumulated above x amount of dollars of commission. If that commission is distributed out by paypal or check, there is a way to record it on that photographer's record, with payment date, form (check, or paypal), reference number, and once the payment is recorded, new counting of commission starts. The total sales will always be calculated for each photographer.
There is a site sales summary page sorted by year and month.
8. Photographer Subscription: Photographers will have several plans available, free with 50MB photo upload space, $50 for 200MB space, $100 for 300MB space, etc. This should be configurable in the admin area. And plan upgrade ability in Photographer Members area.
9. Photographer Member user database integration with an existing phpbb 2.0.11 member database, so that all the photographer sign up will be done through phpbb. The phpbb forum might be on a different server with a different domain name.
Please reply with your estimated hours to complete this project, availability and hourly rate. We will contact you with more detailed requirement. There might be changes when we finalize the complete requirement. If you have better idea on any of the above requirement, we are open to your suggestion.
Thank you very much and we look forward to working with you.
