Confused about SmugVault and Uploading DNGs

I've only recently opened a SmugVault for my images.

I primarily want to store the original DNG files from Lightroom (Windows 7). I have downloaded and installed the latest plug-in.

Under my SmugMug page, I created a new gallery and I recall an option to set DNG as the file type. However, I cannot find this option in the Lightroom plug-in. Upon trying to create another gallery under SumgMug (via my browser), I can't seem to find that option again. :scratch

Is there an easy way to have Lightroom upload original DNG files via the plug-in? SmugVault sounds like what I need but I don't think I'm using it as I should.

    Sounds like you are looking or the 'Original' setting.

    In the plugin manager, under 'file settings' select 'format - original'.

    How can I confirm it's uploading the DNG files? I uploaded 348 images and went through really quickly despite 1.5Mbps upload on my home connection.

    Actually, never mind. I did a sync and a re-publish. I think it's working now.
