Photo Seller – can I attach an .eps file for sale?

[rixie]

Hi, I am currently setting up a website to sell photos and illustrations, (and eventually footage), but I am a complete novice at building websites. I want to be able to sell both .jpg files but also have an option in the price list for a buyer to purchase the .eps file. After searching the internet, I’ve managed to change my functions.php to enable me to upload .eps files or .zip files, (so I can include .jpg and .eps together), but I can’t see a thumbnail of the image in my media area. Is there any way that I can either:

a). have an album that shows the actual.eps file, but somehow display the image, with an option to purchase that file format

b). have an album that shows the .jpg image but add the option within the price list, (and correct link), to purchase and download the .eps file format

Update: I’ve managed to add a link to the .jpg preview via the ‘edit more’ area of the media section, and adding a a link to the .jpg into the description field. This sort of works, in that it shows an image in the gallery but, if I add to cart and then review the cart, I still get a blank thumbnail, so it’s a far from ideal solution.

It has been suggested to me that what I need to do is: upload both file formats, add the .jpg image to the gallery but give it a custom link to the .eps URL.

I can’t figure a way to do this, so would be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction.

Thanks
