I've been working this morning and have found some glitches -
I tried to set all galleries to default using the "all galleries." I
found the same thing you did. It doesn't work. At least it doesn't
work right away. I don't know if it has to catch up with the changes
in the background. I'll wait of few hours to see if it works.
Glad you mentioned that.. I'd have thought it was me :-)
I know I've always gotten fast response too... but the three
emails were simply please to leave my stuff alone and since
that really required no action, I can't blame them.

As I said yesterday, some of my videos didn't transfer right. They
were replaced by thumbnail stills. I submitted that as a problem and
they answered that they are looking into it.
I tested some of my keyword searches. Some of them came back with
empty or incomplete results. I submitted that as a problem, but
haven't heard back yet.
They must be slammed. I've never waited more than an hour for an
answer from the help desk. They seem to be taking a few hours right
now.
I have backups of all of the videos and can re-upload them, but I'd
rather not take the time if they can fix it. Same for the keywords.
I keep a set of folders organized exactly like my Smugmug galleries.
If I ever need to recreate things, it'll take time, but nothing will
be lost.

Hi Ann -
Just a couple of comments interspersed

what I want to bury is the ones with locks... Ideally, a hidden
folder which doesnt show up as a "locked" one publicly - but
I can send people to with a password and link... without the
thumbnail appearing anywhere publicly.
You can make a password protected file unlisted. That's what I do
with my class files.
I know, I do that... but I had also been using public yet password protected
galleries for the answers to my geography puzzle and those
showed up on the folder page
I've got the blackground :-) that was easy... eliminated the trim
I actually like the one with the banner like yours - I plan on changing
the bio part to an about me thing that will link to the full bio within
the site.
Yeah, that's easy now that they have added Pages. You can build a
page with whatever you want.
I actually don't understand "pages' as a concept here.
One thing though..I watched the vid, and he was pushing the easy
easy easy stuff but... I want to change ALLLL my galleries to
have their landing pages be all thumbs and while it says "bulk changes"
it is only within each folder and within a gallery as far as i could see.
Go to the top of the task pane, there is a selection for All
galleries. Pick it, then click on settings (in the green bar) and
you'll see the gallery style in a popup menu with a bunch of other
stuff. That's is intended to make the same change for all of the
galleries. I didn't try it, but they are talking as if it works.
It doesn't work across folders it seemed to me. all my galleries are
in folders. and some folders have sub folders...
Some of the examples they think are so gorgeous I think are hideous,
equivalents of shouting on the web, cliche over- HDR'd over saturated
boring stuff.
Yeah, some of the designs where they just throw up a collage of photos
don't appeal to me. A lot of people must love that 'cause most of the
photo sites are either making that the default or an option. I saw an
interview with one of the Smugmug developers and he said all of the
demo photos were taken by employees, and most of the photos are of
employees, their friends and families.
I have a bit of a problem with the task windows overlapping the
page you are working on, too. and I'd like the panes that have
the functions to work on to be black on white, not in the theme
I'm working in.
I'd like to be able to float the task pane onto my other screen but at
least the main one can be moved to the other side of the screen.
There is a little < at the top. Click on it and the task pane moves
to the other side.
I was able to do that but I had to zoom out a lot to get to see it and the
page and then I couldnt see the text on the task pane. catch 22.
Once you start tweaking it can be habit forming.

I'm not there yet - but I do plan to work on this stuff today
after the sink is clear of dishes and the laundry is put away
Or maybe before the dishes are done :-)
