Integrating SmugMug with SocialEngine

Jshwaz

Hi all,

I am currently working on a customization of SocialEngine.com. Its a php based facebook clone with open code if you purchase a licence.

I am trying to acomplish two things:

1. SocialEngine only has single photo upload capabilites. I would like to utilize smugmugs upload capabilites but make it look like they are still on my SocialEngine site.

2. Allow users to purchase any photograph that has been uploaded to my SocialEngine.

Here is what I'm thinking:

1. Emebed the smugmug upload capabilites in my socialengine site
2. Upload to a unique album in a SmugMug pro account
3. Use the API to transfer the photos from SmugMug to SocialEngine
4. Place a Buy Photos button at the top of the album page in SocialEngine
5. The Buy Photos button is a link to the Buy Multiple Photos page in SmugMug. This page will be displayed in a frame in SocialEngine
6. Allow the user to purcahse photos from there

Anyone have any thoughts on this? Am I going about this in the wrong way? Thanks!
