Smugmug Advice

[HikinMike]

And by the way, do you have to know code or html or java or something else to do that? If so is it hard to learn or can a couple of basic commands get me what I want?

It helps, but there are a lot of members that can help you. If you haven't seen these, take a look: SmugMug Customization - Digital Grin Photography Forum

Awesome! Thanks so much guys. I had no idea the things you can do with this. I heard that Smugmug was a popular choice to showcase your work and I was just about to cancel what I have and go learn code to make my own. I feel much more relieved now.

Appreciate the help from everyone!

Hi there,

Just hang in there, it takes a little time to get used to! We have a really good tool to allow you to do customization quickly. Go to your homepage you will see a "tools" button with Easy customizer there, click it! http://img.skitch.com/20091216-w6cj77nt4e5bj927xpud1h346.jpg

There you will find how to quickly change the color of your site, remove things you don't like, add things you do like etc.

If you want a slideshow on your homepage, you can do that with two button clicks. Just scroll to your "homepage" button and click on "Slideshow" http://img.skitch.com/20091216-ptmquwqdwhwmyh3cdiagayj2u9.jpg

We'll get you there!

Thanks Markham. And I saw last week that you were offering discounts for Smugmug. Is that still going on by chance?

We abruptly expired all 50% off coupons so I wanted to let people know that I would honor them for two weeks more. Those two weeks have passed now

I would however still honor any request I get via PM for the rest of this year.

The Lonely Wolf is a really nice site. Well done :thumbup::thumbup:

I signed up for a smugmug pro account and I am pretty happy with them. My site is till under construction but you can visit it here:

Digital Flower Pictures.com

Since my domain was changed to smugmug about a week ago i have had several sales and made enough to pay for the account for a year so the rest is profit (maybe 2010 is the year I get that 24-70 2.8 ). Some of the traffic has been coming from smugmug, which is nice.

I would love to hear any criticism on my site and how to change it for the better.

Dan,

Loving your pics of the RC airshow. I flew RC for quite a few years, brings some memories back. I especially like the tandem shots with the giant-scale biplane. Nice job:thumbup:

Thanks, that was a lot of fun shooting that show. My RC club is much more modest.

I'm actually waiting on a new electric RC plane specifically designed for shooting ariel photos. Should be a fun summer.

Here's a You Tube video I put together just for kicks.
