Preview as a visitor?

I'm working on my new site in the sandbox mode. Is there a way to load the site as a preview as a visitor would see it?
In other words, without the blue strip along the top, and without the smugmug menu bar along the top?
I can't really finish my design without being able to see the final thing.

Great, will be useful.
My site is http://photos.boo.org
I did a lot of custom work on my old site - like my own collage portrait style galleries, so it's great that that is now a standard option (since my mods required rewriting most of the page as it loaded, and also I never made it iPad friendly)
There are still a few issues with getting it just how i'd like it - I posted those in another thread. I'm hoping your team will be able to make some quick changes in the coming weeks
Have you thought about branding your Search page with a big background photo? It would look AWESOME on your site. Check out Jaime Ibarras or Thomas Hawk's?
If you are interested in doing this, I will write up a blog post about it in the morning and put it here http://www.mb-photography-sf.com/Blog
Back to your original question, if you scroll down just a tad, you can see what your visitors will see, as the two top admin strips will be hidden.
Hope this helps!

Yes I've been doing the scrolling down thing, there's just a couple of things you can't quite check like that - eg the slideshow doesn't take up the whole screen, and unlisted galleries will still be there etc.
Those search pages do look good, so that blog post would be great!
