Is it possible to make an attribute of a product, a file that must be uploaded from the customer, e.g. logo.jpg.

For example, if i were selling letterhead layouts, and the customer wanted to buy a layout inclusive of their specific company logo. They would have to send me the logo first before i could integrate it into the letterhead layout and finish their order.

Does that make sense ?

Cheers, Simon.

As per one of the suggestions in the thread provided by Bill I use a free and simple PHP upload script - when a product needs artwork or an image there is a simple button next to the product which opens the PHP window where the user can browse for the file and upload to the server.

If you use a PHP script ensure it has the ability to restrict file types and file sizes - last thing you want is someone uploading an EXE file and causing havoc with the server and website.
