I need a web platform where two types of users—Designers / Photographers and Customers—can interact seamlessly. Creators will sign up, upload high-resolution images (no videos or documents for now), set a fixed price per download, and receive payment each time someone purchases their work. Customers will be able to browse, search, preview watermarked thumbnails, purchase, and immediately download the full-quality file. Core requirements • Separate sign-up / login flows for both account types, with profile pages. • Upload module that accepts common image formats (JPG, PNG, TIFF, etc.) and stores originals securely in the cloud or on the server. • Pricing field per image with currency support and automatic preview of the final cost to buyers. • Shopping-cart and one-click checkout powered by a mainstream payment gateway (Stripe, Razorpay, PayPal—whichever you recommend) plus instant download links after payment. • Earnings dashboard for creators showing total sales, per-image stats, and withdrawal requests; simple admin panel for approving payouts and moderating content. • Discoverability features: category tags, keyword search, and basic filters (price, newest, popularity). • Responsive UI that feels clean and modern on mobile and desktop. • Fundamental security (password hashing, HTTPS, limited download attempts) and GDPR-friendly data handling. Technology choices are flexible; I’m comfortable with a PHP (Laravel) or Node/React stack, but open to Django or other proven frameworks if they speed things up. Deliverable should include: 1. Working web application deployed on a test server. 2. Source code with clear documentation and setup instructions. 3. Brief hand-over session so I understand how to add creators, approve payouts, and manage the catalog. I’m looking for a solid, functional build first; we can always iterate on advanced features like subscription bundles or AI-driven recommendations later.
