Subscription Based Purchasing

[BrettH]

Allow me to ask a simpler question.

Because I feel as though I'm overloading everyone when I post...which may be why I've been ignored 3 times so far.
EDIT: And no, I wasn't talking about this site. Not yet at least lol.

Is it possible to make customers have to pay a subscription fee in order to access my shot?

There's a one-time membership mod in Free Software Add Ons. I don't know if it will suit your needs, and I haven't used it, but it might be worth a look.

As for the rest of the stuff in your first post, I'm seeing a lot of custom coding.
