[Paid script request] Convert photo's to products

First: please do not post solutions for this request. I need some-one to develop a module/script for this.

I am currently building my new website with Opencart, and also a webshop. See here for some screenshots:
http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=30857

In the webshop, people can order some products, gift certificates and also order photoprints. To save me doing alot of manual work, I need an module/script to be developed which converts photo's into product's.

This is how I want see the workflow when the script is installed/working:
1. I will upload photo's (1024px large) to the Opencart folder in my ftp account, for example: "image/data/order/h7JKs8/"
The h7JKs8 is a variable and I will make new names for each order

2. I will open my Opencart admin screen and go to the module/script

3. In the script, I will enter the variable (for example: h7JKs8).
Based on that variable, the script will retreive the photo's from the folder on the ftp account.

4. The script creates an new category with the variable name (for example: h7JKs8).

5. The script will then create products from the photo's, with the following options/variables:
- Product name (variable): filename of the photo (without .jpg)
- Description (variable): h7JKs8 (for example, needs to be the name of the folder in which the photos reside)
- Model (fixed text): FSOL
- Price (fixed text): 0.00
- Quantity (fixed text): 0
- Subtract Stock (fixed option): no
- Image (variable): photo of the product, on which the product is based
- Tax Class (fixed option): 19%
- Category (variable): h7JKs8 (example)

5. I will go the the Global Mega options in Opencart and add the correct Option group to the photo's. This will be done by me, as sometimes I need other prices for the photo's.

Important: The script must work on v1.4.9.4.

I know it's alot of work to create this, so I am willing to pay up to 250 usd for the script. Depending on the quality of the script. Interested? Send me an message, e-mail or respond below.

I dont understand why you wish to pay someone to give you the ability to do something, differently than what can already be done as is, with less effort.

You say you want to be able to upload photos into a folder with a variable name and convert them to products.

Yet all you need do is add a category, and call it the variable name, add a product and use that image as the product image. Any other images can go in the additional images section.

All these images can be placed in a folder if you wish, and even call it the same name as the variable you wish to use if need be.

I know you didnt want an explanation of how it can be done, but i felt that i should point this out to you because you will pay someone 250 dollars for something you can already do for free.

We'll ... I think you do not understand what the purpose is.

For each order, about 40 - 60 photo's will be uploaded. They each need to be a separate product, which can be ordered. The customer must choose the photo he wants to have ordered.

If you put it in additional images, he only can see them and not order them.

And I am not going to create 40 - 60 products by hand or using an excel sheet for importing them. Just needs to be done via a script.

Ok now i understand what you mean, you basically want a photographer gallery which enables a client to order photos.

Indeed ;). But I do not want a separate gallery next to my webshop. It all needs to be integrated.
