Just verifying which to download as there's no details on the download screen as to what is included in each.

Thank you for the feedback!
We are redesigning the Downloads page and will upload an updated version in a week or so.

The main download option is the "Ecommerce CMS" package including both Drupal 7 and LiteCommerce 3. This is for new web sites built with Drupal plus LiteCommerce.

The "stand-alone" version includes LiteCommerce 3 only. So, if you don't need Drupal, this is the version you are to download and install.

If you have a web site based on Drupal 7 you are to download the "stand-alone" version too, however it will take extra steps in order to get it connected with Drupal:
a) Download the "lc3_clean_theme-1.0.0-beta1.zip" Drupal theme and the "lc_connector-1.0.0-beta1.zip" Drupal module on the page at https://github.com/litecommerce/drupal/downloads
b) Install and enable the theme and the module into your Drupal installation
c) Enable "Drupal Connector" module in the LiteCommerce back-end
d) Configure the Drupal module and specify the path to your "stand-alone" LiteCommerce installation

Feel free to contact me should you have any questions on this.

There is no Google Checkout and PayPal integration modules yet. However, PayPal is in the list of LC3 modules which we plan to release soon after releasing the LC3.
As for Google Checkout - it depends on how many users vote for it.

If you check the LiteCommerce 3 back-end, you will find "Module Marketplace" page under the "Add-ons" tab (on our demo web site it is here). Module Marketplace is a single directory of free and paid LC3/XC5 modules developed by our team and third-party developers. Third-party modules will be validated by our team before being listed there. So, it doesn't matter who develop a module - the module will be listed there and LC3/XC5 users will be able to buy (if it is a paid module), download, install and upgrade it directly from their LiteCommerce back-ends. The only requirement is accepting the Module Marketplace terms and conditions and following our guidelines and coding standards.

Thanks!
