Simple list of all galleries?

Hello there
This is probably a stupid question, but this has been frustrating me since starting Smugmug about a month ago. Is there a page that I am just overlooking that gives you a straight list of all of your galleries? The only way I can seem to find them is by enabling the category listing on the home page, but I don't want that to be visible to my customers. Any hint you can give is greatly appreciated.

    You can enable the category listing only for yourself. You'd enable it generally like you were before and then hide it for your visitors with CSS. Enable your categories and give us a link to your site and we can show you how to do it.

    Hey thanks, I appreciate the help. Here's the home page. . . http://mcginnisleathers.smugmug.com/

    I do think it's kind of silly that we have to use a CSS trick just to view a list of galleries on our account. This isn't the place to complain, but I'll be sending a suggestion in for sure.

    Add this CSS:

    .notLoggedIn #galleriesBox {display:none;}

    I wouldn't call it a CSS trick. You're asking for a custom look where only you can see your galleries. This is CSS customization to give you that custom look.

    We allow it, it's part of basic SmugMug site design. But you've customized it away. John's shown you a way to handle.

    Also, try SmugBrowser for Firefox it's an awesome management tool. http://wiki.smugmug.net/display/SmugMug/Hacks+and+Apps

    Andy, I really wish you guys would officially support SmugBrowser and keep it current and put it into the Firefox add-on download system . I want to use it from time to time, but EVERYTIME I get a Firefox update, SmugBrowser stops working. As such, it is almost never available to me without trying to figure out how to hack it's installation to make it work again. I'm surprised you so easily recommend something that is such a pain to keep working. Why not just support it yourself and keep it current?

    FYI, if I go to the Firefox add-on download site, this is what it shows for SmugBrowser:

    2010-05-03_0743.png

    It's lists as only compatible with older versions of Firefox and listed as experimental. I'm currently running Firefox v3.6.3 and my installation of SmugBrowser is marked as incompatible with my current version of Firefox so it's once again busted.

    If I were in your business, I would NOT recommend an app like this that isn't kept current by anyone (that I can tell) and isn't part of the normal Firefox add-on goodness that keeps them up to date automatically.

    Am I missing something here?
