It was a real bitch to get automated. There is NO automation in the C++ bitcoin client. But we figured it out.

You can now join the website, pay with bitcoins (it pulls the current exchange rate) and get instant access with the username/password.

The awesome part is the buyer does not have to disclose their name or address (which the website has no use for anyway). it's pretty slick, better than I thought it would be.

If any other webmasters are interested, PM me.

Hey bitpay, welcome to GFY! there's no PM here on this board. just put your site/contacts in the sig, whatever you're comfortable with just make sure you follow sig rules mentioned here

From what I understood integration of bitcoins on a website is not that difficult looking from php perspective tho, only thing required is to run actual bitcoind on the server and PHP could connect with it through RPC calls, there are maybe other methods too, I didn't look too deep yet. And I don't see no reason why ASP would not be able do RPC as well.
