New Domain & Upgrade to Power Account

Souwalker

Hi

I just registed my domain name and will use this as soon as I upgrade to Power Account shortly.

When can I use my new domain name after I upgrade? 24/48 hrs to allow domain registration?

With my Power Account, would I be able to customise my home page Like the following:

http://bigwebguy.smugmug.com/

http://ivar.smugmug.com/

http://www.moonriverphotography.com/

What I'm asking if there are already styles that I can use, similar to the above links, from smugmug, where I can simply copy and paste? I know nothing about coding..

Hi Patrick, after setting up the CNAME, it's usually really fast but not more than 48 hours.

How long will I have to wait after I upgrade to Power Account to be able to use?

Thanks

Are there already some sample styles that all I need is just copy and paste?

I like your site style and was wondering whether there is a copyright on it? Is the code in your 'How To' meant to allow other smugmug users, who would like to have something similar, use the code for the design? I will not use a banner but in place of where your Moon River Photography banner is, I'd like to change the text to 'Photos' or 'Photography by Patrick de Souza' or something along the line.

Please let me know your opinion and what options do I have?

Many Thanks
Patrick

Thanks Rich

I don't know how to create graphics. The font and design of the words 'Andy's Demo Site' is also the type I'd like to use. Is that a graphic banner or I could just type what I want over it?
