[SOLVED] Paid Profile Gallery

[SOLVED] Paid Profile Gallery was created by nilsy
Just a thought...
I have some Members who wish for a possibility whereby they can make their Profile Gallery accessable via PayPal or some other payment system.

The thought is that images are visible as thumbnails to get people actually interested in paying, but they only popup to large view after an online payment has been done.

I am not sure how this could be done.

Perhaps something similar to a credit system I saw earlier today, which was not quite suitable (of course).
For example, a customer pays 100 Euro for 100 credits.
To gain access to an activated Members galleries, he/she must give 5 credits to that account.

I know this sounds like a major system in itself, but I think it would be a major advantage to have this possibility.
(I purchased that image thingy from the AngryNinjas, but that was just a swindle sorry to say.)

It's possible with CBSubs if you've CB ProfileGallery set to use thumbnail display (won't work with lightbox) then simply protect the pop up URL partially with CBSubs By URL Part protection. It's not exactly fullproof though. I can simply right click, inspect element, copy URL, paste to browser, remove tn, and now have your full image. It's best to use a gallery extension that can use ACL to safely and securely protect the images.

CBSubs is not really suitable for this as I see it, sorry to say.
Ok, thanks for fast reply!
