I'm a graphic designer and consultant. I have finally convinced a client to upgrade his website...e-commerce of course, but to include interactive java module that will allow his customers to upload a logo or some other art and position it on my client's stock sign or badge (user selectable size, shape and colors.) Also, customer needs to be able to input text and selectable font and type size. Customer's selections and input will determine pricing. If possible, we would like the java module and e-commerce to work with the client's in-house accounting software. That may be wishful thinking at this juncture because the budget may not permit it.

Any succestions? Offers of Help? Any of you pros work for a company that is doing this kind of thing or know who does?

All information is welcome. Please contact me directly:

You don't *have* to use Java. Virtually any server-side scripting language will do instead. PHP, ASP etc. I think everything that you're talking about is possible, with perhaps the exception of integrating with accounting software (completely depends upon how that software is written.

Thanks Archangel,

You are right about that, but I've only seen similar things done in Java, so I started my search here.

So far I'm not having any luck, though solving my problem, so I think I'll take your implied suggestion and look elsewhere as well.

Regards,

I think using a server-side scripting language would probably be quicker and easier anyway.
