It is a site for a printing company and customers artwork needs to be uploaded once article of printing has been purchased. I am using Joomla 1.6. Can anyone let me know what is the best way and easiest way to do this, I am pretty new to joomla and php.

I have looked and there doesn't seem to be an option for uploading files using a form. Is this added in the business edition?

On the other end, you can do it in few clicks with HikaShop Business and you will have a lot of additional functionalities with that.
