Hello everybody :)
First of all, congratulations to Leo for his great work. Leo, you do a wonderful job with this theme and independent network, so keep it up!
Now the question - there are countries which are not supported by Paypal, and there are also their unsatisfied customers. And ofc, there are better payment processors which support multiple payment methods, currencies etc...
So regarding Symbiostock's customization, I was wondering, can the Paypal integration be disabled?
And can the custom buttons be added on the page that opens when you click the image? I would need a custom "buy" buttons which would be linked to payment options - credit card, paypal etc, provided by the payment processor.
And one more question - does every buyer needs to register first before purchasing or is this optional? Forced registering is quite a turn-off, especially when something is new and unknown. People loves flexibility and it can only bring good, so if I would use this theme, I would like to be more liberal.
thanks.

Same problem i am struggling now :(, Paypal restricted domestic payments in india ( i.e. indian buyer can not do transactions from indian seller ) , not sure how long this restriction is going to be there , i have sent mail to paypal regarding this , there is no response from them :-( .
but i have to get this sort it out asap , looking for alternative payment solution as well , which will be like side by side with paypal.

It would be really awesome if Symbiostock supported other payment options. I'd actually really like to see a Bitcoin option.
I'm happy with PayPal, but it would be great to have other options alongside PayPal.
Edited to add: Maybe it's possible already? I was just looking at Coinbase and they have some interesting merchant tools for accepting Bitcoin payments: https://coinbase.com/docs/merchant_tools/getting_started
Wonder if this could be set up to work with Symbiostock. Need to look into this more...

Thanks Mike for reply.
i inquired couple of gateway , in india all gateways are really costly and found PayUPaisa of PayU service is good but later they denied they don't service for digital goods , i wish Paypal and RBI @India will resolve their issues which can benefit freelance merchant in India.
Btw is there any other Symbiostock user from India ? and how are they dealing or planning to deal payment options for Indian buyer ?
Regards
Simi

TOKYO (Reuters) - Mt. Gox, once the world's biggest bitcoin exchange, filed for bankruptcy protection in Japan on Friday, saying it may have lost nearly half a billion dollars worth of the virtual coins due to hacking into its faulty computer system.
