[ic] UNIQUE IDEA

I've just been contracted to build an online dating site.  I've been kicking
around the idea of creating it via cgi scripts and a SQL database.

Upon further experimentation, I'm thinking I can actually use IC (which I
know a lot better).  Has this type of application been used before?

I can present certain information via normal search functions and set the
flypage to 'members only'.  The fly page would contain additional
information such as contact info, etc. that only paying customers can see.

The only problems I can see is processing a card before account creation
which shouldn't be too tough and having a member submitting a photo... also
not hard.  Tieing it all together may be more difficult than what is seen on
the surface.

Anyone have any thoughts or ideas on this type of application?

Much appreciated...
Jim.
