1. Introduction
Online photo processing system software is a commercial product for the normal user to get digital
photo printing service. This document is provided for the requirement and design specification so that
developer can get the clear idea of the system and also the design specification of the system. It
contains also prototype UI which is very useful for the customer to know about front-end view.

2. Business requirement

Printing digital photos through online print shops is significantly gaining market. Typically, print
shops only offer payment via credit card and automatically apply standard picture settings that not
always produce acceptable results. To guarantee professional service, higher quality and flexible
payment options, the following procedure (to be automated) could help.

A user starts the processing by logging (user name and password) in the system. If the user is new
then he/she has to be register to enter in the system. After that, user will place a new print order by
uploading his/her picture files and by specifying the desired print sizes and qualities. Immediately,
the system checks whether the uploaded files are compatible picture files and whether the pictures'
resolutions are suited to the specified print sizes. In case of problems, the user is asked to modify his
order. This procedure goes on until no further problems can be detected, in which case the order is
forwarded to a photo editing expert, which is in charge of checking the aesthetic quality of the
pictures. If the expert has some comments, he/she fills in a form with appropriate feedback and (if
required) suggests possible editing operations. After that, the user can comment the provided
feedback via the shop's Web site and accept/deny the suggestions. Based on the user's decisions, the
expert applies the accepted modifications and fixes the final cost. If the expert has no additional
comment, he/she just fixes the cost according to the price list. Once the cost of the order is known,
the system sends an email with the required payment instructions to the user and, also, forwards the
pictures to the print department. The user can choose between online payment via credit card, money
order or bank transfer. Credit card payments are directly supported and processed by the shop's Web
site, while the two other options are not under control of the system, which thus keeps waiting until
the payment occurs. After completing the payment terms, system will ask for the shipment address.
In the meantime, the print department prints the pictures and prepares them for shipment. Once the
payment has arrived, the prints are shipped, and the user has one month to provide his feedback (and
to close the order) before the process terminates automatically.

Figure 2.1: Use case diagram of Online Photo Processing System (OPPS)


Web Design Project

The Use case diagram of the online digital photo processing system contains the scope of the system,
the list of system functionalities and the total vision of the possible interactions between the system
and the actors of this system. The main actors identifying here are:

i) Customer: Customer represents as the primary actor for this system. The printing
company offers the digital photo printing service online for the customer in different
location.

ii) System operator: The general operator and the administrator are the two actors and these
are the generalizations of system actor.

General Operator: This type of actor supports the system to complete the main flow of
events to achieve the goal. It takes care to delivery the shipment order to the requested
customer.

Administrator: Administrator of the system is responsible to several interactions with the
system to reach the objectives. As an example administrator can delete the customer order
at any time with proper reasoning.

iii) Database Server: A Database server act to store the customer authentications information
and it’s also added the new customer’s information when a new customer-user registration
occurs.

iv) Web Server: Web server take care of new user registration, user authentication, ask
picture, check picture, checking image quality, fix the final cost, automated email and
collecting shipping address.

v) Photo Printer: Printer is responsible for process printing and prints out photo to delivery
this to the requested customer.

Based on the above use case diagram we can identify the following groups of main types of
activities:

i. Customer starts the processing by logging in the system. In case of a new customer, he/she
has to be register to enter in the system.
ii. Customer will place a new print order by uploading his/her picture files with specifying the
desired print sizes and qualities.
iii. The system checks the picture files with respect of compatibility and resolution suited to
specific print size. In case of problems, the user is asked to modify his order. This procedure
goes on until no further problems can be detected.
iv. The expert applies the accepted modifications and fixes the final cost.
v. The system sends an email with the required payment instructions to the user and forwards
the pictures to the print department.
vi. Credit card payments are directly supported and processed by the shop's Web site.
vii. After completing the payment terms, shipment address will be collected. The print
department prints the pictures and prepares them for shipment.
viii. Once the payment has arrived, the prints are shipped, and the user has one month to provide
his feedback and after that the process terminates automatically.

Figure 2.4: UML- Class diagram for on-line photo processing system

Using the above class diagram we represent the vocabulary of our online photo processing system. It
is built and refined when system is developed. Each class description consists of a class name, state
variables, reference variables and methods. We make a clear distinction between variables containing
the state of an object and variables that express which other objects a given object knows. A class
description defines the types of each variable as well as a signature for each method.

The objectives of class diagram are.

Names and models concepts existing in the system.
Specifies collaboration paths.
Specifies the basic logical schema.


Web Design Project
In On line photo processing system, the front view of class diagram is shown in the above figure. The
class diagram are composed of several classes and there relationship between these classes. In the
Online photo processing system, classes are the following:

Person
Customer
Customer_Details
Login
Order
Order_Details
Order_Preview
Order_Status
Pricing
Album
Picture
Picture_Details
Upload_Picture

4. Framework of the development

4.1 Logical architectural diagram

Figure 3 : Logical architectural diagram

It is basically the coding layer of our application. There are there layers between User Interface (UI)
and Database. Those are:


Web Design Project
Façade Layer: It contains the all methods/ function of the application to update, delete and insert in to
database. It is directly connected to the User interface and also business layer. Sometimes it access
Data Access Layer (DAL) directly if the functionality does not require any business logic.

Business Layer: It contains the whole business logic of the system. If developer requires any changes
in the business logic after develop the software then they will only change on this layer. They do not
need to change the whole application. BL connected with DAL and Façade Layer.

Data Access Layer: It is used to access data from Database and only know the query or stored
procedure of the database to retrieve, modify data like SELECT, UPDATE.

Base Layer: It contains the all configuration setup of the system and base class of the different layers.

4.2 IDE and tools

Visual Studio.Net 2005: We have used Visual Studio.Net 2005 as an Integrated Development
Environment (IDE) to develop our prototype.

Visio 2003 & UML 2.0: We have used Visio 2003 to draw all design with UML2.0 notation.

SQL Server 2005: We have stored our sample database in to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition


Web Design Project
5. Prototype of the System (Graphical User Interface)
We’ve made to make the new users to understand the Qavi online photo processing system easily.
Thus it is a dynamic web page customers will easily be able to upload their digital photos through
CD drive, floppy drive, external devices or hard drive. Also be able to create their own account,
album and upload pictures to that album and can save them. And could order them according to his
choice by my given sizes with price. And then he/she could be able to proceed to the check out. Now
we’ll explain the total system point of users view.

We’ve created the header & footer because we will need to use them throughout the whole
application. In this page we have got Home, Register & Login link button I’ll use Logout in the other
pages, Home button to call the home page, Register to register as a new customer & Login for the
users who have already registered. In the Footer we’ve also got some following link button Contact
us, Pricing, Help, FAQ. Contact us to get our e-mail & web address customers will be able to mail us
as well. In the pricing page we’ve given some price list with respect to shipping time, paper size and
quantity. And I made another page for help there we’ve given some problems customers might face
with solution. So the following is my home page with these actions. We’ve also given two buttons for
Login & Register. (Help and FAQ are under construction).

Figure 13: Home page of the online photo processing system


Web Design Project
Register Page: When a customer will click on the register button the register page will come up. It
will take the all users details.

Figure 14: Register page of the online photo processing system

You must have to fill up the last name, e-mail address, Password and Re-type Password to complete
your registration. If you don’t fill any of them error message will be shown.
Then click on the registration button to finish registration. And it will bring you into the Login page.
You can also cancel your registration by clicking the cancel button.

Login Page: The total system will be very easy to operate now. In the login page just type your given
e-mail address and password. We’ve also given a check box to save the e-mail address and password.
If he/she is a new customer they could register by clicking the Get Started button. And from now and
the following pages we’ll get a link button Log out on the Header to Log him out.

Figure 16: Login page of the online photo processing system

Album page: After Login you will get the album list page. Here all your album names will be
displayed. Default album name is the date. To create an album first you have to click on the link
button Add New Album.

Figure 17: Album page of the online photo processing system

Web Design Project

First We’ve created a page to create a new album name for specific album. The default name will be
the current date. Click on the create button the album will be created with that given name.

Figure 18.a : Album list page of the online photo processing system

Now to add pictures into the album click onto the edit button in that specific album row.

Figure 18.b: Album list page of the online photo processing system

Pricing: If customers wish to see the pricing list. He/she just need to click on the link button Pricing
then the price page will come up and customer can see the Cost of print/ Postage and according to
size.

Figure 22 : Pricing page of the online photo processing system

Finally customer will come into this page. As it’s an online system you have to pay by card. So to
make the payment you have to type the card holders name, Card number, Card Expiry date. Also if
your billing address is different than shipping address type it in the billing address text boxes or if it
is same as the shipping address (which customer have given in time of registration) just click on the
check box. Shipping address will be given by default. If it is different, then also type it in the
shipping address text boxes. And click on the submit button to complete your order or cancel to
cancel the order.
