Your last question first: just get the code line from FAA, install the Wordpress plugin "iframe", create a page "Prints" (or whatever), paste the code (and remodel it a bit according to iframe-plugin syntax), add that page to your main menu - done!

Thanks, I did that but it just wont work, its either placed at the bottom of the page below the blog menu widgets, or if I use a blank page, its not showing up at all. I think the Javascript code line is blocking the iframe code from being read properly as WP doesnt support direct JS.

Hi all,

I have been wondering about this. I want to create a page with FAA cart on my SY site. However, some images are similar on both FAA and for sale as RF. Pricing is of course different. Here is where my question come in.

How do you justify the price hike between RF stock and FAA? This is mainly for the full res. I am selling full res for 20 euro, but the pricing on FAA for that same image is around 125 euro.

I could justify it because I am the artist and I decide how my images are priced, plus all the extra work involved needs to be compensated. Which is true.

Next question. I could lose FAA sales over this as they can download the image and go to their own POD site. Which is fine. A sale is a sale. But would it be smart considering that, not linking my FAA cart to my SY site?

Thank you for your thoughts.

Now all I need to do is figure out how to implement this FAA shopping cart code on SY. 

Comparing FAA prints with RF digital files is like apples and oranges, isn't it?

Sure, if you overprice your FAA stuff you might sell an image file instead. But this buyer still has to go through the hassle dealing with that cheap POD site of his/her choice. Will they deliver FAA quality? Can they handle odd formats? Do they offer that fancy canvas? etc. - I have no concerns.

Your success on FAA mainly depends on your own marketing. So if you don't link your SY site with your FAA stuff you are missing out on cross-marketing both sites. You might lose sales potential on both sites.
I see absolutely no good reason not linking FAA with my SY even more so FAA offers this nicely integrated page/cart. A buyer does not even leave my SY site (at least not on the browser surface). I wish other POD sites would offer something similar (e.g. RedBubble for calendars, Zazzle for t-shirts, etc).

I understand the POD and DL part but why sell the POD image for more then the DL image? Its the same image.

@ Pilens,

I will answer two fold 

1. FAA widget - fixed. The first line with JS code was blocking the iframe code from being read. And  I had to change the < to [ and remove the </iframe> closing tag. Its working now. Legend.

2. What I mean is, if they buy that print they pay 100 dollar for the image (material excluded). If they download the same image from my stock site, they pay 27 dollar for the same image. I do get what you are saying and I guess its ok to sell it like this. I think I am worried that buyers come to think that they were being overpriced buying the print on FAA.
