So I just had a referring hit from www.smugmug.net. Is this a phished version of smugmug or are my dreams of being able to access smugmug from work (for now) a reality?

    Just do a whois lookup. I'm sure that we have a lot of names. But - to be clear to everyone: www.smugmug.com is the domain of choice and support.

    And rounding it all out www.smugmug.org. This google analytics thing is kind of cool. I'm wondering if these URLs have been around all along or if there was some kind of URL grabbing by smugmug going on.

    Ordinarily, I abhore the practice of grabbing the same domain name in every TLD, but for once I think I found a use for it.... except that in a few places smugmug is outsmarting my attempt.

    So what I've been doing is to use smugmug.com as my logged in editing session, and smugmug.net as a logged out preview... in two tabs of the same browser. But occasionally, there are links I've run across that "standardize" the url back to .com and all of a sudden my "logged out" tab is logged in again and I need to go edit it.

    Would it be possible for smugmug to use whatever the original requested domain is when generating hrefs? Or at least within a user's subdomain? I can understand if you're generating a link to another user (like for friends and family linkage) or back to the mothership in the headers that you would want to standardize on something.

    Sure thing! :D

    Open any gallery via a non .com address, say my beloved MT road trip:
    http://cabbey.smugmug.net/gallery/727491

    Since I've not loggedin at "smugmug.net" it shows the loged out view, but check out the urls on the thumbnails to change to a different image, they point to http://cabbey.smugmug.com/gallery/727491/1/33007928 for example. Once you take that link, whamo, you're back in logged in space. (Of course since it's not your galery, the key indicator for you would be the "Free Trial" vs "Your Photos" links at the top.)

    Thanks - now I see what you want to do. Our supported URL is *.smugmug.com

    Of course, you can use the other URL, as you are - but I wouldn't count on such a change - there are lots of other works in the works that come ahead of this. If Onethumb wants to chime in, he will :D

    Thanks for posting the suggestion though!

    All the best,
    Andy

    Yup, kinda figured that was the answer Andy, but had to ask. :)

    Still, it would be nice to not have to run a second browser, or constantly log in and out to see things from the other side.

    I run three browsers sometimes - certainly two *always* and can't see the problem with it - one for logged in, one for logged out... Are there performance or RAM issues you're worried about? ear.gif

    heh, not on a quad with 3G. :): it's mostly a screen realesate issue, and a preference issue... I don't much care for safari, and I hate ie.

    I wouldn't count on this working forever. The fact that it does now is a happy accident, but smugmug.net is used for other things.

    Nahhh...

    Personally, I'm just not bright enough to handle the complexity... (Insert thick looking smiley here)

    4 Computers + 4 Virtual PCs * (IE (14 windows open on this PC at the moment) + Firefox (9 tabs) + Visual Studio (3 IE Tabs) + SharpReader (1 Tab) results in one **** of a mess...

    (32 login/logout cookie configs per machine account at a wild stab in the dark so that works out at easily over 100 combinations)

    I tell you, I'll be needing an online service to manage my cookie distribution problem at this rate...

    Will not go off topic... Honestly ;)

    Seriously though, I don't think people need worry about the performance impact of two browsers, IE seems fairly good at shared memory and even Firefox 1.5 doesn't seem as suckfull as Firefox 0.9 etc was in terms of memory.

    If I can do it in a Virtual PC then I think just about anyone can.

    Will go and draw up a speadsheet of which cookies are logged into which accounts. Arrrggg

    Ah, very glad to hear that... I'll switch back to the method I used before the typo accident that brought this to my attention then.
